Rejected petition Have all bins be collected on a weekly basis instead of every 2 weeks

Ive had enough of our bins constanly be overflowing.They used to be emptied every week and now black is emptied one week and the red and green another week .The average household in the uk goes through 1 tonne of waste every year .So having bins be collected every two weeks is nowhere near enough .
