Rejected petition Block the three weekly waste collection scheme approved for Oldham

Oldham Council’s Cabinet has approved proposals to change the way rubbish and recycling is collected across the borough.

From October, bin collections will switch from a two-weekly to a three-weekly cycle – with food and garden collections remaining weekly.

More details

On most street bins are overflowing way before the fortnightly collections , fly tipping or people dumping their rubbish in others bins is already a huge problem in Oldham , yet this seems to be completely ignored.....
