To throw ALL our dirty nappies (in bags) in public bins on a daily basis?

[BiscuitStuffer]

Rather than chuck them in our normal bin at home?

do you put them in the pocket of your coat and walk around surreptitiously?

Why would you do that? What's wrong with using your own bin

But why would you do that?

Get a nappy bin maybe? Or a bin in the garden?

Not unreasonable as such, just, what's the word? Oh yes, odd.

Is that easier than just putting them in your outdoor bin?

Why not visit a public building and put them in the yellow bag rubbish in the baby change, at least they will be treated as nappies and disposed of correctly rather than just going to landfill.

What is the correct way to dispose of nappies?

What on earth would you want to do that for?!? Sounds barking. What's wrong with your own bin fgs?

if you don't want a binful of dirty nappies at home then use cloth

YABU.

If I recall correctly you can be fined if you use public litter bins for household refuse. And are caught. Obviously that is unlikely. But I think the fact that it is an offence/subject to a fine or sanction suggests that it is something that is frowned upon.

HOw does it work though? Do you save all the nappies that have been used during the course of the day and then transport them to litter bin? Or take them there after each change? Is it the same litter bin, or do you vary the bin? Because if you're using the same bin and dumping in one go at some point it may be noticed, the public litter bin will fill excessively quickly and will start to smell more than public litter bins usually do. Don't see why the rest of the public should be deprived of the use of a bin/have stinking public litter bin outside their house/near their homes.

Crazydiamond - like the Great Escape! PMSl!

Why not put them in your own bin? Isn't that its intended purpose?

It's a bit like Schindlers List - I tie the nappies (in their nappy sacks) up in a carrier bag in batches of 2-4 .

Is it really an offence? It wouldn't be considered unreasonable if you had to change your little one in the park or some other public place and put it in a bin en route.....

private wheely bins have lids ... most public bins I know dont have lids.. dumping nappies would make them really smelly ..

is not a hastle for you to take them out to litter bins??

i'll ask same as everyone else.. why????

but why?

It's to avoid the stinky stinks and our house is tineeeeeeeey and I assumed (perhaps wrongly?) that the public bins are changed really regularly.

yes it's an offence.
you're basically dumping human shit into landfill aren't you?
nice

use your own bin

How very bizarre.

you should be tipping any solids down the toilet before binning them anyway.

or just use cloth, then you don't have a bin of stinky nappies anyway.

where is this bin?? is it in the street/park/shopping centre??

Yes but putting it in the bin if you've changed it while out and about isn't household waste, any more than putting your crisp packet in the bin while you're out. You're talking about taking significant amounts of waste out of your home and into public bins.

And you actually do this?

Seriously - why?

...and we don't have wheely bins here.

I say bring on the recycling of used nappies, though how they can make that work I don't know but they're talking about it aren't they? Then you have to dumpy them in a container without any bagging at all??

Sorry x post.
