Fortnightly bin collections - plan b opportunity

[alreadypacked]

You already have the bin wagon - why not give it a go?

[RichardCranium]

You could expand the service to:

- repair the pot holes in the furkin awful roads we now have everywhere;
- educate the stupid children 'cos the teachers can't be arsed;
- patrol the streets;
- cut the grass verges;
- deal with the overhanging branches;
- put out fires in areas with no fire station any more;
- help people with their planning applications to speed up the process;
- help people get to hospital who cannot get themselves there;
- I'm sure there's other things too.

It would make everyone happier, just like going to a counselling service except it actually does the work, rather than just talk about it.

Perhaps, to make it more fair and efficient, charge everyone a flat rate according to their house size. Call it "the Rate" perhaps, to sell the idea.

Yeah, get people to pay "their Rates" to get their services from "your Counsel".

Because there's no bastard body doing anything else that sounds like this, is there?

1, Due Diligence:

a, speak to council ask them if you need any particular license to 'operate' a refuse lorry and collect rubbish and take it to the 'waste processing center'

b, double check with a lawyer

c, talk to waste processing center about how much it costs to tip 26tons of household waste

d, do the maths and calculate how much to charge per bin

e, check the cost of the lorries, here's some starting at 3 grand...

f, see if anyone else in your area is offering such a service, what are they charging etc ? is there anywhere round here without such service where you can fill the gap


2, Assuming successful due diligence

a, buy the lorry

b, adverts in the paper local media

c, phone line and website

d, paint the lorry with the company livery, instead of writing like ice cream vans write stop me and buy one, write, stop me and I'll take your bin for a fiver

e, leaflet drops etc

Don't deliver the rubbish to the refuse place - buy a boat, paint it with a "green" motto, fill it with rubbish, kick it off the coast, waith 2 hours, in international waters the 500lbs of dynamite makes everything dissappear.

Don't deliver the rubbish to the refuse place - buy a boat, paint it with a "green" motto, insure it, fill it with rubbish, kick it off the coast, waith 2 hours, in international waters the 500lbs of dynamite makes everything dissappear. Claim insurance. Simples

FTFY!

Great idea, I have a similar one. You know how the UK has a national health service, where its free for everyone? The downside is the quality is poor and the waiting lists are long.

Why not build some hospitals hire good Drs/Nurses etc and charge for health care! What does the panel think?

There are good Drs/Nurses etc but they are private and not free.

In Belgium I pay €22.50 to visit my doctor as a private patient and the State reimburses €18.00.
We are all private patients
No state insurance no reimbursement. Illegal immigrants have to go to the out patient dept at certain hospitals only for emergency treatment.
This is why Illegal immigrants choose the UK

To answer the first question.
My rubbish is collected twice a week.

furthermore as you know in sunny Belgie, the dustmen only collect the council bin bags which cost 1 euro a piece at the supermarket

Where did you shop in Belgium?
I have never bought a 1 euro bin bag in sunny Belgie. I buy a roll
of white bin bags,Blue bin bags(plastic)Yellow bags (paper) but no green bags
as the slumdog family has no garden to speak of.
