Take **it home please.

[Tantric]

We live on the Sussex High Weald and a popular walking route goes past the entrance to our drive. Today yet again I’ve had to take dog poo bags out of our big recycling bins before I wheeled them back up the drive after collection. On numerous occasions in the past I’ve also had to take out soiled nappies and sanitary products. It’s always great to see people and families out walking and most are of course respectful of the countryside and its community (and at least they are not just chucking it into a hedge) but is it too much to expect everyone to behave with respect and take all this stuff home or dispose of it properly?

Have you contacted the council to get them to provide a bin ?

Get a bin lock

Presumably the bins have to unlocked for the recycling collectors.

Hate it when people put dog poo bags in our bin on drive. I have a dog and would not do that. Plus it is private property and they shouldn't even be on your drive. Cheeky bastards.

Gross as it is - the bag of poo goes with me until there is a public bin.

I had to get one as I lived on a walking route. They unlock automatically when the bin is inverted by the recycling lorry but can only be unlocked when upright with a key.
You shouldn’t have to get locks @Tantric but they were easy to fit, inexpensive and worked well.

People should take their rubbish home with them. When you provide bins, they need to be emptied very regularly or you get the vile people who just pile their rubbish around the full bins. If you take something into the countryside with you, you can take it out and dispose of it with your household rubbish.

Take your rubbish home!

A bin makes no difference
free poo bags make no difference
some people are just ill educated selfish lazy turds

Another call for a gravity lock on the bin.

Hopefully if there isn't a handy bin, they will avoid the temptation to just drop it.☹️

Also a dog owner, and completely agree, OP. There is an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty a quarter of a mile from my house that I’ll stop going to this week until winter - once tourist season is with us it reeks of dog shit. I stood in shit last week while I was putting my bag in the dog waste bin, it’s somehow more enraging when you’ve just carried a bag of poo around yourself for an hour!
Will never understand the mind that goes somewhere because it’s beautiful then leaves it trashed.

in your recycling bin?
how can people be so stupid

Nice idea but I suspect won’t elicit a solution given our local authority’s finances!

Thanks - I’ll look into a lock!
