    Hi,

    just noticed my refuse company collecting my waste and surprised to see them dumping the contents of the small brown compost bin into the grey general bin and all into the refuse truck.
    whats the point in composting?
    normally they have a smaller compost truck,not today.

    strange one!

    thanks

    John

    Are you sure? A lot of the trucks have separate sections at the rear to allow them collect two different waste types

    If you're sure it went in with black bin/residual waste, then contact the company first.
