Waste bin at bus stop between 117/119 Crofton Road need replacing.
Reported in the Dumped rubbish category by Jean Rogers at 13:23, Mon 5 February 2018 using FixMyStreet Pro
Sent to Bromley Council 1 minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 1207043.
The original bin was removed, probably because some inconsiderate person in a car was regularly filling it up with a black bag of household rubbish, causing it to be raided by foxes or to overflow. However, could a bin be reinstalled as we are now being inundated with fast food wrappers & general rubbish blowing up our driveways? Could I also request that it be the type of closed in bin to avoid the black bag fly tipper returning?

Whilst I appreciate the Council’s dilemma of providing litter bins that are often misused by some inconsiderate members of the public , I feel that the Council should also appreciate how distressing it is to daily pick up half eaten fast food items, wrappers, cigarette butts, cigarette cartons, beer bottles and cans from our drive, hedge and front garden. Although you say that contractors clean up after the weekly bin collection, they obviously do not clear my drive, even though it is often evident that household rubbish from the collection, (not ours) has also found its way onto my driveway.
Please could you reconsider and perhaps supply a bin of the closed in variety, that has the ashtray on top to avoid the type of previous misuse.
