Fun Day out for all "A trip to the local Tip"
PoPrivit:
if i had been on my own i would have tipped the lot on the floor and drove off. :x
told me if i wanted to leave it in a gateway then that was my choice :? .........
Still Had a nice box full of old Computer bits........just let him see it before i chucked it as far into the skip as i could...... 8) ...for some reason he didn't look happy.

I must be lucky;
The guys at our local tip are very co-operaqtive; I turn up with a tipper trailer and if the load is for landfil anyway they often let me drive around the back to tip it myself.
The only problem I had recently was the dippy girl in the council office who didn't tell me that the asbestos I had to dump had to o through through a three foot hole; not easy with a four foot panel. The guy up there was nothing but superb and he helped me get it in.
That said my mate in Plymouth cannot get rid of his azzie at all; is it any wonder they get fly tipping?

haha i went to the tip sunday morning with my van full of rubbish from the garage, they wont let me in but they will let me use their barrow to carry all the stuff, trouble is every one else in their shoebox cars who start having a go cos they think your jumping the que :roll: i had to bite my tongue at one woman and politly explain that as the height limit is 5 ft 8 i cant get in and have to do it this way then she parks so close to the bin i cant get the barrow to the side so i emptied on the floor in front of her car and put everything in piece by piece :twisted: and made her wait 15 mins as all she dumped was a half bin bag of grass

Why are they always like this? :roll:
They have the legal obligation of letting your vehicle in if you are not dumping for commercial reasons. If your vehicle is too tall for the barrier, then they have to open the barrier for you to let the vehicle through.

You wanna come and tell the local muppets that run my tip that? They will open the barriers to all and sundry for commercial waste etc. but not for me with my RECYCLING (because the curbside collection is crap and they refuse to take anything but paper...so i have to take the card, plastic, glass and metal myself!)
