They said they'd take my rubbish (fridge and freezer) for recycling on Friday. They did not. Sat, Sun, Mon, Tue, Now Wednesday... and I did take the trouble to do it all online, and call to confirm.

Wouldn't be so bad if they hadn't started charging for these services. So is it a rubbish council or a great council? (less info)
