MAY I congratulate Blackburn with Darwen Council on the first two weeks of the new recycling and waste collections.
On the first week, grey bin collected, green box collected but paper sack not collected. Later found out that paper sacks were collected at 7.15am despite the leaflet saying have everything outside by 7.30am.
Week two, green bin collected but no paper bag collection for the whole street. After 15 minutes on hold with the advice line, I get the response of Bring the bag in and we will collect next week.' Recycling is a must, but come on Blackburn with Darwen Council, if you say you are going to do something, then make sure you have planned it out properly. It's costing the taxpayers money.
MARTIN WEST, Darwen.
