    It's cleanup time again, or for the cynics amongst us it's your 2nd of 3 times to pay for plastic,
    first time you pay to cover silage,
    second time you pay to get rid of it,
    third time you pay for it as stock board etc. but to be fair this is optional:).

    Don't forget proof of levy paid.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    That third one could also be it's recycled back into silage wrap again.

    What if your contractor supplies the plastic, what proof of purchase do you have?

    Dropped mine to a collection point in Athleague today. It was collected in a quarry. Very steep hill going in. Car stalled going back up the hill but made it it eventually.

    Got them to collect it here at the farm last year...cant remember what I have them, but remember at the time that it couldn't have been worth the hassle of trying to load it in a trailer and cart it off to a being centre...

    It's a pity these days are midweek! Didn't see times for Athleague. Did you take time off or bring in evening?

    I was off a few days anyway. They sent me a text message. Its VK Agri recycling. They usually collect it for me but I did not have too many wraps after short winter and reduced stock numbers so I threw it in the trailer.
