CANTERBURY City Council’s new recycling policy is leading to a massive trash problem. According to the new scheme each household is to receive only one roll of clear recycling bags every three months which is not enough to cover the needs of domestic use.
If you need additional bags because you have more recyclable trash to despose of, you have to go to the City Council and fill in a form stating that it's urgent. But this won't solve your problem right away. According to the new rules you are entitled to receive the additional roll when you have the usual delivery. This means if you have got one roll of recycling bags a month ago and you have run out of them you have to wait two more months in order to receive two new rolls.
Green party member Geoff Meaden said: "Canterbury City Council has a big problem because they have a different population at one time of the year to another time of the year. And when the students come after the summer they have to cope with nearly twice as much rubbish as they do in the rest of the year. But that's no reason why they shouldn't solve the problem as they've known about it for a long time."
