Have Our Household Bins Emptied Every Week Not Every 2 Weeks

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The bins have always been emptied every week and I would like you to have this changed back. Flies and Maggots are becoming a problem.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

All councils should be required by law to collect waste bins once per week
