@edinhelp Hi Gayle, yes the council take our bins with the bins in the community. We are just concerned about the amount of new cardboard & plastic waste we are collecting up due to the extra packages we are receiving. Thanks, Gemma

@edinhelp We are currently providing food and lunches to hundreds of families every day. We are receiving daily food deliveries in and we now have a lot of packaging that we can't put in our bins as these are now full. Could someone please contact me to advise further. Thank you

@edinhelp Hi, yes it’s just the household bins we have at the centre. We’re in Muirhouse Millennium Centre, 7 Muirhouse Medway

@edinhelp Hi, we normally only have regular waste, but since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, we have changed our way of working and we now have a lot of waste. Thanks, Gemma
