Our local council has posted on Facebook about thinking of what you might take to the tip for disposal
A good initiative. Except AI gives suggestions when you click on the information.
""What are some items to repair?
Here are some common items that can be repaired instead of thrown away:
1. Clothing: torn seams, broken zippers, missing buttons
2. Furniture: scratched surfaces, loose joints, broken legs
3. Electronics: faulty chargers, cracked screens, broken batteries
4. Appliances: jammed mechanisms, faulty heating elements, broken knobs
5. Tools: dull blades, loose handles, rusty parts
6. Bicycles: flat tires, broken chains, loose gears
7. Toys: broken parts, worn-out batteries, loose screws
8. Shoes: worn-out soles, broken heels, loose stitching
9. Books: torn pages, broken spines, loose covers
10. Household items: leaky faucets, creaky doors, cracked ceramics
These items can often be repaired with basic DIY skills, or taken to a professional repair service.""
The ONLY thing public can remove is paint, via a tin of paint exchange system.
You are not allowed to remove anything that could be used to repair those items suggested above.
