To think Hermes shouldn't recycle my Christmas presents for me?!

Checked my amazon account this morning to see that a parcel I'd been told would arrive on Wednesday had actually been delivered yesterday. I had had no note, no text, no email to say that it had.

After checking the tracking number on the Hermes website, I find the attached picture, which I'm fairly sure is the bottom of my recycling bin.

Unfortunately my bin was emptied this morning, apparently with DH's main Christmas present in the bottom.

AIBU to think that Hermes should let me make my own decisions about what I recycle?!

OP
Good luck getting your item. I’m also finding the bin interrogation hard to understand. Still you provided me with a good laugh

I rarely peer into its depths looking for defining features. Grin

Good for you probablylate . Indoor recycling and showing youngsters that there is more than one use for things

I just cant stand clutter. Our recycling bins are emptied every 4 weeks and the idea of 4 weeks of recycling just creating a mini mountain in my house sets my teeth on edge. The kids keep what they want (usually egg cartons to make crocodiles) but the inside bins get taken out as soon as they are full.
Me too! We have a small recycling bin under the sink and I have a routine of emptying it into the wheelie bin outside every morning (or more if it gets full quicker).

Do put a sarcastic note on the bin though!
