Rejected petition Go back to emptying bins more frequently.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Local refuse collection services will be the responsibility of your local authority. Many local authorities now accept e-petitions: you may wish to check your authority's web site to see how you can make representations.

Parliament can pass legislation to require all local authorities in England to collect refuse weekly. If that is what you want to happen, you could start a petition about that.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
