Mine was emptied (unless I had forgotten to put anything in it!)

However my old food bin, which I had to replace because the bin men flung it over my wall and broke off the lid, which then blew away somewhere in the wind, is also  still there.

Every time I try to get rid of it by putting it in the green bin, it is never emptied from the green bin.

I'm not sure if this is because it gets stuck (it only just fits in the green bin) but short of taking it to the tip myself I can't see how else to dispose of it.

Btw there is an Ulverscroft Road WhatsApp group where you might get more response than on here re whether other people's food bins were emptied.

If you aren't already on it, message me and I can add you.

Thanks for the replies.  
I did think just about tipping it all in the large green bin but it’s putting me off 🤢

Next week I’ll just put outside on pavement, surely it can’t be missed then. 
 

@Suethanks I am aware of the Ulverscroft Rd WhatsApp group, I’m not on it, but I think I just prefer chatting to neighbours/friends whilst out and about.  But thank you for the offer! 😊

I just thought that as your query was specific to the road, more people who live in the road might see it on a group specific to the road than on here, as the road group  has over a hundred members, but no problem!

    • H&B Is coming to Lordship Lane  It will be next to the Large St Christophers in Lordship Lane Also just to confirm that Oliver Bonas is taking over the 2 white stuff shops (i spoke to the builders yesterday and they confirmed they are breaking through to combine all three shops)
    • So here we go again, but with a proposal for a bigger and longer event. This despite the massive failings (again) last year with serious & long lasting damage to our park throughout the summer, lack of effective waste management, widespread public nuisance by the attendees, and of course the noise. Every year GALA are set conditions for their event licence, every year they fail to meet them, then every year they are granted a licence again - depressing. First impressions from the site plan - the proposed footprint has increased dramatically, sprawling further down & across our park (image attached with 2024 footprint in orange & 2025 extension in red). There  will be a music stage within 50m of our front room. The entrance area will be on a sports pitch. The trackway for heavy plant access will be across two sports fields. The entrance / exit for heavy plant will be opposite a school. The road at that point is regularly gridlocked due to parked & waiting cars. Increased trackway = increased damage to grass. I'm sure there's plenty more that is unacceptable... It's clear that we all need to comment on this consultation, but it's not clear how to actually add comments / participate. The email & consultation document both direct you to the GALA page on the council website - www.southwark.gov.uk/Gala2025 - but this only has details of the GALA PR sessions, not the official consultation. I've raised this with the council, I'll post if I get a response. I've also raised the issue that the council's Outdoor Event Policy states that "Applications for major events must be submitted a minimum of nine months prior to the event start date.", which would have been August 29th 2024 for this application. This is apparently necessary to give sufficient time for things like consultations...
    • I'm sorry to see another chain opening up in the form of Holland and Barratt a couple of doors up from SMBS.  That will be another unfair pressure on SMBS .  I really hope people continue to support SMBS and its relative shop The Cheese Block under huge pressure with the arrival of Mons and Bora.  These are two of the oldest surviving (30 years plus?) green grocers, deli and unusual ingredient food shops in Lordship Lane and made it an interesting high street long before the chains and  newbies moved in.  I would think Healthmatters is none too happy either 😕 Support your local independent store or Lordship Lane will get really dull 
    • Thank you so much for your lovely review, Laura! It’s amazing to hear about your progress – we love having you at the hub. See you soon! Gok 😊
