Sounds like a bit of a crap rideout destination.

First they came for the pikey scum fucks - but I wasn't a pikey scum fuck so I helped round them up into the cattle trucks and had a good laugh about it later down the local beirkeller.

You have no proof for any of this!

No tax to pay like me, no laws to follow if they kill some poor bugger, and totally un regulated - what a bloody loophole.

Rant over


The public coffers in the UK are, as near as dammit, empty, how else do you expect local services to be paid for?

A very poor rant, has drink been taken?

My local recycling centre used to be privately run, you could buy anything from push bikes to lawn mowers, I got a load of fishing tackle for £2, don't see what the problem is.

When have you ever heard of an auction or any other sale of recycled brick-a-brak by councils who operate recycle places?
All the 'good stuff' neatly sorted into department(C-containers) as it arrives.
The public even help to sort it out.

Hate pikeys?
Just arrive at the gate with taped over plates, wearing a ski-mask, dump the unwanted contents of your boot against the fence and fuck-off sharp-ish.

You do.

I'd MUCH prefer anything I don't want to get another use by someone else. If someone has taken the time to take it to a market, good for them! They've earnt that money.

Surely, this saves the council money in landfill / transportation / etc. too?

Maybe they give 0.01% to good causes like all of those charity shops that are pretty much doing exactly the same thing.

Dry your fucking eyes.

They pay the council for a licence to remove waste from the Household Waste Recyling Sites.

The council is itself taxed for every cubic metre of waste that goes into landfill.

So from the point of view of taxpayer effieciency, someone paying for the privelage of removing waste from the council site is a win/win situation.

You don't like it? Take it down the car boot yourself or bung it on ebay.

My council run tip actually auctions old furniture and still functional/useful items off to raise money in two or
three sales a year at the tip. All money raised ploughed back into their pensions no doubt. I'm certain all the best stuff
defnitely hasn't just vanished into thin air, absolutely certain I am.

This.
My wife and her sister did a car boot sale to get rid of some old baby stuff and other junk we didn't need anymore, but was too good to just dump. I got roped into going along to help hump the stuff about. It was a futile exercise on a freezing cold day and we earned a net £20 in the six hours we were there. Fuck that. In the future it goes to the dump and if they want to sort through it and sell it on they can have at it.

You can't. I slapped a load of sky blue chalk paint on it and sold it to a woman in a Picasso for £400.

My local tip always has any valuables picked aside next to their box. Not sure if for the council workers to take, or if it's used in more official basis. That's fair enough imo as better it getting used rather than getting chucked.

Only problem is if a visitor decides to acquire a dvd player or similar from the electrical bin, theres one guy who jumps in his big yellow digger and chases after you. I don't bother as normally shite there and not worth the hassle, but would think they would go that far. A friend of mine picked up a fair few decent TVs though and other electronics that only needed minor repairs, if any.

I also had him block the oil disposal with his digger as i had also brought some battery acid, and he thought i was going to put it in that, as he was questioning some bike battery i put in the battery box and i said I had some acid too.

Tbh acting with that sort of suspicion is why things don't end up being disposed of correctly.

Anything I take to the tip that could possibly be oiked out of the skip and sold for profit is smashed to fucking smithereens before it goes in.

Seriously why bother? You're done with it so why even care if anyone else gets some benefit from it.

People need to chill and get on with enjoying life. Laughing
