What is the amount of mixed rubbish and recyclables that end up in landfill from skip bins from businesses, industry and the council that are not separated prior to being picked up for the landfill?
Why isn’t the council policing or encouraging less landfill of recyclables from large skip bins while it is penalising Albury citizens?
How many skip bins and Cleanaway trucks empty each day at the tip into landfill, with a mixture of rubbish and recyclables?
I suspect a large number would be doing just that and negating any benefit from our new bin system starting next month.
