Morning all, just after some quick advice. I pay for a commercial waste collection each week to Birmingham Council. However recently, they have not been bothering to collect the rubbish, it has literally been, they pull up, look, leave! I've put in complaints and have received refunds/credits, but I'd rather them take the rubbish instead of being a bunch of lazy (insert word of choice).

Any ideas of who is responsible for regulating them so I can take the complaint further, as they are obviously not listening! This is now the 6th week and I've had one collection!

Thanks

Phone and find out who is the Chief Exec of the council and send a strongly worded letter of complaint.

Many thanks I will give it a go.

Find out who your councillor is and make a complaint to them.

Where I used to live in Manchester the little road sweeper used to go past our cul-de-sac everyweek, so I complained to my councillor, next day the little sweeper came up together with a team who swept all of the pavements etc.....

As for commercial collections, I used to manage a block of 454 flats in Salford. We had to pay for a commercial collection, yet each flat occupier also paid for domestic refuse collection in their Community Charge.

Time the local authorities to get the proverbial rocket up their behinds.
