Raging Edinburgh residents claim they have to keep waste in their homes due to council workers not emptying communal bins correctly.
Alistair Clarke, who works with the NHS, is joined by a number of neighbours in condemning waste workers for not fully emptying bins. He says that communities in Clermiston are faced with bin men who only empty the containers when full to the brim.
Having lived in the community for around ten years, he says that the last ten months have been challenging with the way that their communal waste is emptied. It is claimed that the problem has become an almost weekly occurrence, where bins will be left on one of their two designated disposal days if they are found to not have enough waste in them.
