rabbit waste help

[TIGGERLIT]

hi CAN ANYONE HELP
just gone to take my rabbit waste to the tip and the council wont take it anymore as they have changed their rules on what you can take, they wont even take wood etc.
i live in hampshire and was wondering if there was any people here that rescue rabbits like me that can tell me what they do with theres. i live in the countryside and there are quite a few allottments around. do you think they would take some as its only hay, straw and droppings. any help would be great thanks

Hi there, I'm assuming you don't have a garden yourself? do you have any neighbours nearby with gardens? I'm sure they would love to have it, or as you have said people with allotments, it['s good stuff to dig in, straw hay and all.

I know someone (also in Hampshire) who now bags up the rabbit waste and puts it into the bin! The reason is that the tip refused to take it. I don't know if it's really the right thing to do but using it on a garden could cause problems as there is likely food stuff in there which can attract rats. I used to put the guinea pig waste on the compost heap but then discovered that rats liked it!

Not a problem in the garden at all if it is well dug in.

you could always dump it at the council offices!!

like the answer of dumping it at the council offices lol.
i do have a garden but not enough room for a compost heap. im going to ask one neighbour see if he wants a sack a week.
as for putting it the bin they check it and they only empty it every 2 weeks and with a household of 6 it will fill too quick even though we have a recyling bin too.
thanks for all the answers though and keep them comming

Hi I live in Lincs and when we started recycling I rang council and was told rabbit/guinea pig cage waste could go in the bin with grass cuttings etc. twinny
