Stop Trafford Council from charging extra to collect garden waste.

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

Trafford Council have stated that from the 5th June 2017 we will be charged extra if we want our garden waste collecting.

They have also not offered to reduce our current council tax to reflect this.

This is particularly unfair on the frail and disabled as they could struggle to transport rubbish to their local tip.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is the responsibility of your local council.
