Communal bin area

That is an odd looking situation you have there. I can't see any flats, so who has to use those communal bins ? Aberdeen City Council should move them into that car park or build an enclosure for them elsewhere. I lived in a flat where the bins were directly under me and were often set alight so I know where you`re coming from. Contact your Councillor, MSP and MP and show them what you have to put up with at the side of your house [which I'm sure none of them would].

Thanks for your reply, there are indeed no flats near us, these bins are for the houses at the back of my house which are situated on top of a hill. I have contacted various people who have a consistant response of the bins have to be somewhere and so long as they are not blocking a window they are not breaking any legislations, does anyone know if there is a piece legislation around this? I have attached a new pic

Your problem has to be solved, it wont fix its self. My next suggestion is complete an official complaint form [they are allowed a month to get back to you] if you are still not getting anywhere try reporting every day to environmental health. If that fails then I would see a solicitor or Citizens Advice Bureau who may have dealt with similar situations.

The council complaint form is here for you to copy and paste: http://www.aberdeencity.gov.uk/CouncilDepartments/cdp_ask_ceo_form.asp

Hi again, I just looked on Google Street View and had no idea idiots were even placing empty ? propane gas containers there. Another avenue to try is contact Grampian Fire & Rescue Service and ask them to give you a visit to discuss the dangerous situation faced by you and your property.

I will try the formal complaint and let you know how it goes, Good shout on the brigade for the next gas canister. I took the propane tank you see to the local centre as I was pretty worried about it and it had been reported every week for 6 weeks with no response so I thought best to get it gone.
