I live in a street that is part of the pilot scheme and I am, broadly speaking, in favour of it. However, in my road many residents can't/won't keep their bins inside their front gardens, usually because of the steep steps down from their front doors. They are understandably unwilling or, in some cases, unable to lug their wheelie bins up and down these steps each week. So they just leave them on the pavement, blocking it and making a pretty horrible stink in the summer. It also encourages flytippers just to dump stuff beside them. Southwark Council has helpfully added to this problem by supplying us all with another wheelie bin just for rotting food. The council should provide their residents with a refuse solution that can be accommodated within their premises.

This sounds like a fantastic thing to do - where did you get down onto the shore?
