Have been a victim of the Stolen Grey Wheely Bin lark over the last two years. Including awol bin and neighbours using my bin to put their stinking bags of rubbish in.
My Wheely bin hsd been taken a number of times. Then mysteriosly reappeared about a week later. Put a stop to the above by chaining and padlocking the bin to a drainppipe.
What is the world coming to?
The neighbours in. mention do not live in their flat but have sublet it on s revolving door basis, to at least ten illegals who work in the very dodgy takeaeay/cafe. they run locally..
It is like an Ai BnB. They even throw in a free car for theit guests to use
l definely know who is it by the businees name on the cardboard plates and cups they use in their takeaeay/ cafe.
But l have not seem them place the rubbish on the bin. T
Got on to the local Council and they told me that by using mine and other neighbours bins. They said these neighbours do not have to employ a commercial rubbish collector from their takeaway /cafe and pay a charge.
Apparently, ths type of scam is very common place with low life.
l now keep my Grey Wheely bin in a nearby friend's locked outhouse.
Wheely bins are quite expensive and l bet there is a nice little trade in pre loved, knocked off bins.
This post has been very wordy.
Hope it helps.
Unfortunately. Such is life
