Crews still catching up on bin collections

By Ian Dipple Monday 28 January 2013 Updated: 28/01 12:56

BIN COLLECTIONS have still not been made to about 100 homes in the borough following disruption caused by last week's snow.

Extra crews have been put on by Redditch Borough Council and a spokeswoman said they aimed to catch up on properties they had been unable to reach by the end of Tuesday.

Residents who have not had their bin picked up by the time of their next scheduled collection day are being asked to leave the bin out which hasn't been emptied as well and it will be collected.

"We would like to apologise for the disruption to Waste Collection Services over the last few weeks due to the poor weather conditions. Please bear with us at this time," the spokeswoman added.
