Buckinghamshire Council admits to botched bin schedule days before Christmas
A BOTCHED bin collection calendar potentially affecting “thousands” of residents in the south of the county has been scrapped just days before the Christmas holidays.
Buckinghamshire Council was forced to reissue an unknown number of new waste collection schedules and to amend its online information after incorrect calendars were mailed to “a few” households in the South Bucks area.
The paper leaflet appears to show contradictory guidance to the council’s website, potentially confusing people who may put out the wrong bins for collection.
On its website, the days for general rubbish, food and textiles are marked by a grey icon. But in the paper format the same days are marked in blue.
