When the lockdown ends

We have a registration system in place at our tip. You register on line giving your vehicle reg number and there's a number recognition thingy as you drive in. You can also sign up for reminders as to which bin is due for emptying each week, very useful if your memory is as good as mine.🤔

Our local council are using an odds and evens car registration entry on specified days. We haven't been yet as normally there is always a queue so will wait till everyone has caught up. We're also limited with what we can take at present.

Both our cars are registered but both are even.☹️ Although I believe ours are just operating a queuing system with no vans or trailers. Given that it is technically half term and the forest was much busier on our walk yesterday, I think we will leave it a week or so. 

We've been shredding our garden waste during lockdown, some of it has gone around the bushes the rest is in bins/bags all lined up along the hedge now 14 in total. Good job we have a big garden a we are having to wait until end of June/July before we can take garden waste to the dump.

Garden refuse bags is a regular on the weekly shop. I estimate at least 36 full bags so far. I think that we pay £35 for garden waste collection. 

Where we are we have to apply for certificates to use the council waste sites with your vehicle number on it and the address its  registered to if its pulling a trailer over six ft in length or a pick up, cars without a trailer don't require one, you are only allowed six within six months, its pain trying to get them, worse than trying to prove your innocent in a kangaroo court. 

Same here, both our cars are odd numbers and I keep forgetting which days we can go! The junk is all crammed behind the shed and I think it will just have to stay there a bit longer 😀

My daughter says that in her county, Denbighshire, you have to make an appointment and can't return for 4 weeks. At that rate I would have cleared the likely Garden waste backlog by December!
