UPDATED POST: CAN SOMEONE KEEP AN EYE ON BRIGG RECYCLING BINS FILLING UP?

 

Brigg people really appreciate the efforts of North Lincolnshire Council's waste bin collection and recycling box emptying crews who continue to provide this valuable public service, in all weathers, during the Coronavirus emergency.
Householders who have too much to fit into their recycling boxes are still be asked to deposit any surplus at household recycling centres like the one the council provides on the edge of the Old Courts Road car park.
However, the above picture records the late afternoon scene on Saturday (April 4).
The can bank was full to overflowing and community-minded people who had gone to make deposits to be recycled were leaving them in bags rather than feeding them through the holes provided or tipping them en mass in the top (if open - it's sometimes locked).
This might well be seen as low priority in these troubled times, but could someone in authority keep an eye on recycling bins across the district and perhaps ensure they are emptied once capacity is reached?
We don't want to risk people putting any objects that CAN be recycled (pardon the pun) into wheelie bins so they end up in a landfill site.

10am UPDATE - WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8
A Brigg Blog follower tells us he visited the recycling centre at Barnetby yesterday.  
"Maybe you can let people know that only 2 cars are allowed on site at a time (I think it’s the same at Broughton), so queuing is likely," he says. 
"Also, across all sites, they are not accepting anything electrical (appliances, TVs etc.) as the company which collects this stuff has closed for the duration of the crisis. They ask that we hold on to these items as they do not want them dumping in general waste."
 
Brigg Blog has seen recent calls on social media for the suspension of council car parking tickets during the current emergency.
Late on Saturday afternoon, while visiting the can bank, we took the picture below showing a meter on the Old Courts Road car park. It still seemed to be 'open for business' although we only counted 10 vehicles nearby - none at all being evident in our view, which is highly unusual during daylight hours on a Saturday.

A concession was introduced in Brigg long ago, allowing drivers to park free of charge at weekends.
Brigg Blog thinks suspending the ticketing system should be looked at, but there are fewer vehicles visiting car parks at present amid the government's repeated calls to stay at home. And many shops and businesses are under enforced closure.
With these factors in mind, someone will have to decide whether it's worth making any change.
