Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
This is a matter for the relevant waste authority, which is likely to be your local county council: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/waste.
You might therefore like to contact your local councillor(s) and ask them to act on your behalf. Your local authority appears to be Oldham Council, and you can find out their contact details here: https://www.oldham.gov.uk/contact.
