| Street Litter Bins emptying as I understand it is the job of the contractor Hounslow Highways. http://www.hounslowhighways.org/ However it amazes me that people when there is an overflowing bin still don't squash those pesky coffee cups but prefer to just balance them on top of a litter bin. Our on-the-go eating and drinking habit creates more litter. Many of these people then get on a train or tube and sit or stand fiddling with their mobile phones. We can't expect these commuters to take their rubbish home as we were taught as children. However, finding some community spirit and reporting an overflowing litter bin with a few clicks on their smartphones and helping to improve their neighbourhood can be very satisfying and they have the opportunity whilst travelling to do so. They should try it! |
