Honestly man, if you want to see the change, then little things like tipping up the bin don’t take more than 10 seconds. You can’t need to pave the roads to make a difference.

Have you reported the bin to the council even, or are they supposed to know it’s in that state through sheer concentrated power of will?

The council have haemorrhaged money in real terms and one of the only things they’ve consistently tried to improve is the community engagement and reporting on their site and app. The tools are there.

I say this as someone who regularly moves road furniture that’s blown over/ been bumped, whatever. It’s my city, I don’t expect the council to be omniscient, and it’s a massive waste of time and resources of all parties for me to report things I can fix in 2 seconds; that’s less hassle than dealing with the app honestly.

Last summer I spoke to the sweep about moving a bit to outside the local Greggs, it was chucking it down, so we agreed to move it in the dry. However the next day some other enterprising soul came up with the same idea and shifted a bit from another corner. The impact, less litter, less mess, fewer seagulls etc.
