Always been the same there mate, I got banned two years ago. Had a permit for a van, one tip a month, it was a astra van so not massive, took down 2 black bags of domestic rubbish told they weren't taking vans in that day but a shogun with trailer was rammed to the rafters and tipping. Had words with the knobhead who then banned me (vehicle reg). Went home jumped in the wife's car put 4 more bags and some crap from the shed and I was let straight in ! Should have dumped it in the caravan that's been left 100yds up the road, its been there for two weeks now and its been stuffed with rubbish that the tip are turning away Just don't throw it over the fence by the wind turbines or I will be having words 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

terryd 8,680 Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 Flying tipping is going up and up and understandable so cause they make it so difficult and bloody awkward to go to the tip. Need id now and if you take black bags they have to search them. Charge you for certain items like tyres which are just made to roll off down a slope some where. They should do the reverse and then fly tipping would go down. Its not a hard concept 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've been to alot of places and had no issues with the staff; most places are self explanatory with how to que with just someone counting people in and out I, will be the first person to help an old dear with her shopping or pick someone up if they trip, but on the flip side I will also be the first to tell people to f**k clean off when they behave like a dick, the tip which is a couple of hundred yards from my house I was turned away from as I never had a letter with my post code on,( new rules) so I went in anyways and started to empty my car as I pay almost 2k a year to the council in council tax for that facility,, garden centre I was told by a man with a ponytail (pet hate ) that I needed to que when I was the only person there, he made me walk to the far end of the car park then walk all the way back through a zig zag path made up of pallets just to arrive back were I was 5mins earlier only to announce there was no cash being taken and it was card only, I said you could have told me that before making me do a 10k walk at which point he went into jobsworth mode and started spouting rules and regs at me , I gave it to him as well, there was a time when the customer was always right even when they were not, now with a high viz vest comes a state of I no what’s best and you will obey , the next phase which is happening in city’s and will arrive near you soon is they are fitting them all with cameras and it takes them to an even greater level of superior ness, even my dustbin man is wearing a camera ffs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shovel leaner 7,650 Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 Me and my wife went to a garden centre on Monday, I think we were one of the first to arrive . They had what looked like an impenetrable maze of orange tape and bollards designed to ensure that the customers keep at a safe distance. We both looked at the Webb of tape to see the entrance , when the over zealous worker pointed out that it was at the other end of the car park. I just picked up the bollards and me and the mrs went under the tape . The attendant , went to say something but my mrs gave her that look that she gives me now and then and I watched her resolve crumble . Little victories like that keep me going . 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Atb As I said I went to Morrison’s and the staff were all, polite helpful and friendly even when my misses wandered the wrong way down an isle so no reason to be rude to anyone, if everyone tells him to feck off he must be doing something slightly abrasive as it’s not a normal opening line, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
