Our lot provided those, too. Then a couple of years later, they decided
to start charging for emptying them. Result: 90% of people stopped using
them. I think they collected them from people who didn't want them, in

receptacle to put stuff destined for the tip!

Janet: I loved your posts about your composting system: I have learned
much (despite me saying earlier that composting "is my thing").
