I have never had this problem before and I am a bit beside myself as to what to do.
We put our rubbish on the side of the street and it gets collected twice every week I believe. But for the last 3-4 weeks, it has not been collected. And now people have taken it as a collection site or something and placed their trash there as well. 2 steps out and I will have stepped onto a trash bag. The smell is horrendous and I feel it is a health hazard.
I called the council, I have called waste collection and nothing has been done. Council told me to call waste collection and told me not to bother them. Waste collection told me to call the council for the complaint so they can send someone out. In the meantime, the pile of trash outside my door is getting bigger and bigger. (There are about 70 bags outside right now)
Furthermore, I can't stay at home and tell everyone who try to dump it in front of my place to dump it somewhere else. So how to I stop them from dumping their if this moutnain of trash miraculously goes away? Thank goodness it's winter so it's too cold for flies, but if it was summer, I would be literally crying as we speak.
Someone please help!
