Flytipping next to the bin is the way round here also. Actually works quite well as an informal recycliing system: anything half usable does not sit out there for very long before an eagle yed person makes away with it! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14137#post-176363 Mon, 22 Dec 2014 11:51:57 +0000 kaputnik 176363@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Amazed it made it <em>into</em> the bin, preferred disposal method round our way of such "waste" items is to simply place them next to the bin. Or just in the middle of the pavement. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14137#post-176364 Mon, 22 Dec 2014 11:51:48 +0000 algo 176364@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@kaputnik - I suppose at least this way I was sure it was rubbish. I was just annoyed I couldn't dispose of my fridge freezer in there as the bike was taking up too much space. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14137#post-176327 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 20:33:05 +0000 algo 176327@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@chdot - it was unrideable and looks like it had been for some time. The stairwells are full of unloved bikes, but to be so lazy and wasteful as to just throw is away in a bin is pretty pathetic but sadly consistent with other behaviour concerning recycling and bins etc... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14137#post-176314 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 15:42:33 +0000 chdot 176314@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>Small</em> chance it was stolen. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14137#post-176313 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 15:37:55 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 176313@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Good grief. I've seen down the tip before ("Sorry mate, no you can't fetch it out, health and safety innit, gone mad it has"); but in a communal bin??? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14137#post-176310 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 15:26:34 +0000 algo 176310@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>what gets put in the bin really infuriates me sometimes....</p> <p><img src="http://algorhythmical.co.uk/bikeinbin.jpg"></p> <p>and this was within a mile of the bike station... who gratefully received it when I took it down </p>
