Some councils have issued new wheelie bins for garden waste and issued a

garden waste.



Now what will people do if they want to dispose of nasty garden waste

such as lawn mowings contaminated with weedkiller or diseased

vegetation?



If they put nasty stuff in the garden waste bin - and then that waste is

made into compost for sale in garden centres - will there not be a

problem?



And is it possible, when buying garden centre compost, to ensure that

one doesn't get a compost containing council rubbish?

Bagging the garden waste properly, and ensuring its not on the very top of the rest of what you have in the bin should mean no problems.
