QUESTION 7

QUESTION: Councillor C. King

To ask the Manager to report on the huge delays being experienced by residents in terms of the delivery of new green bins by Oxygen and to state what efforts are being made to ensure residents aren't waiting up to a year for their green bins which obviously inhibits their recycling capability?

REPLY

The Council has been in contact with Oxigen Environmental Ltd., the contractor for the green bin recyclable service, regarding the recent delay in the delivery of green bins.  There are currently 150 households in the county awaiting either replacement green wheelbins or new green wheelbins.   

 

Oxigen has recently informed the Council that their stocks of green bins has been replenished and have undertaken to have those households which are awaiting green wheelbins supplied with their bins within the next 2 to 3 weeks.
