    The majority of these units on garage forecourts are / were not compliant with current waste regulations and therefore seems to have brought about a ceasation of trading for these type of companies.

    These units are subject to planning permission and must be registered with the local council, the majority of which are not meeting either of these stipulations and are therefore illegal.

    They had 2 bins removed from the Topaz on Manor Street and the Applegreen in Cleaboy months ago. It's a pity because they were handy.

    You can imagine the sort of things that would get stuffed in them.

    Used to use them a lot.

    Is there an alternative? Need to get rid of a few things.
