Reminds me of an Estate Agent showing Alan Carr a house for sale. “Here’s the oven and fridge and a lovely sofa”. “Would you care to look inside the house too?”
Ours are spread around, garden bin in a small space at side of house, ordinary bin, unfortunately at the front, but tucked into a corner between fence and garage with a plant in front of it. The recycling is in the garage.
Mine have their Summer spot and their Winter spot! Usually across behind the garage in Summer, smell and flies but in Winter they come closer to the house to avoid muddy garden.
Most of us have the bins on the pavements...old victorian terraced houses with a tiny front garden.area. The bin bags used to be collected from the back gardens but that changed when the council introduced wheelie bins (we have 2 each now). That was sensible as foxes and other animals used to get into the bin bags. Not really a problem having the bins at the front..plenty of room...now finding a parking space is not easy!
We don't have access to our back gardens except by going through the house, we have small garden at front and a small bin storage, but they keep adding on different bins, we have green blue purple brown and we used to have grey as well but they gave that one up as a bad job.
Two very large bins. One for garden waste the other for recycling. Plus black wheelie bin for household rubbish.
They are very heavy, and I have to drag them from around the back, up a steep path and onto the drive. I find it quite breathtaking in a bad way.
