Who takes the bin out in your house?

[charliecat]

?

Whoever is the first to remember.

Dont know, hasnt said. Because he can refuse is the norm.

DH - black bags on pavement here too.... as well as the recycling box. All down to him..... even kitchen bin.

I would say he doesnt clean the bathroom, but he did quite a good job the other day while i was asleep!!!

Me.

Me, as dh is usually working away.

Unless of course, he's here and the bin's really heavy, in which case it's 'a man's job'.

whoever notices its full first takes the bag out to the wheely bin (so that'll be me usually ).. our bin men come and collect ours and push it back .. there is one luxury to the small front gardens offered by London Victorian houses

Me as DH is also usually away. And dragging it 200ft up a steep driveway is great fun . The ds's love pushing it back down mind you.

my husband - its boy work

Dh does , as its usually really heavy and the drive is gravel, so its hard to push. And I'm pregnant.But I do it if he's away, which is quite a often. Sometimes the neighbours do it for me ( we have lovely neighbours).

I am a bit shocked that anyone's DH/DP would refuse to do this. Its hardly a big deal for most men, is it? ( Don't mean to be sexist - I know lots of women are fitter / more able bodied than their partners) . It sounds a bit petty to me

DH always

the kids

Dh - except last week when he forgot and I ran out at 6.05am like a banshee and gave the binmen a bit of an eyeful . Dh won't be forgetting again for some time!

DH unless he's away which is maybe twice a month for all collections (weekly black, monthly green). Its awkward because it has to be pushed down the path at the side which includes 4 high steps which are only one flag wide which means if you are not careful the wheel ends up stuck between the house wall and the step or the fence and the step - we are detached but not very.

Me. Dp has fear of slugs (hee hee) and the side passageway is teeming with them.
He deals with the spiders and big hairy moths when they're around though.

both of us depends who remembers.

DH
Surely that's what DHs are for?!?

One of the chores on the list for the children to share is emptying the kitchen bins daily. Whichever child has the chore on bin-collection day puts the wheelie bins out too along with the recycling bags.

Meeeeee DP does not even know what day it goes out. Have not tested him but don't think he is even aware that it happens. its like magic and I am the fairy

whoever is dressed sufficiently to stagger outside

Wel dp did do in the end but I did have to say For Christs skae, please dont do this, its not like you have to plead with me to do thing.

Its really sick.

dh always does it

it's supposed to be one of dh's few houshold chores - but I seem to do it quite a lot of the time

DH usually does it but that not to say that I never do it...Because I'm a new mum dh is usually up and off to work before I'm dressed.!
Im fact looking at other replies dh is quite domesticated...while I was pregnant he took over all household chores and still helps out now at weekends.. Suppose I must have him well trained .
