Bin cleaners cheek

johnwallace

Someone comes round in a van after the binmen and cleans the emptied bins for £1.50.

Because I put everything in bin liners my bin never needs cleaned all that often especially not every fortnight.


Also food waste is in another bin so this bin is just general waste

My computer is next to the window so when I am sitting at it I can also look out the window and saw my bin getting washed instead of next doors because the binman had put mine in next doors drive and his in mine.

Mine has my house number on it.

Bin cleaner realises he has cleaned wrong bin so cleans correct bin

Then I got a knock at the door and said bincleaner said

I cleaned your bin by mistake so instead of charging you £1.50 I will just charge you £1.00 this time and do you want your bin cleaned every fortnight after this?.

No thanks said I just put the dirt back in I clean my own bin when it needs it and shut the door on him.

He stood outside in the street on the phone to someone then saw me watching him out the window so he gave me the V sign and stormed off after his mate who was driving the van

Bloody cheek

I have to admit its a cheek to knock on and say "£1 Please" when its their own mistake.

Look at it this way, you got a lovely clean bin for the price of a two fingered salute......not bad

Yea hopefully he can do it more often along with two fingered salute :j

I'm amazed that your binmen put the bins back - ours just leave the bins all over the pavement or in the road, anywhere but back near the houses that they came from!

Next time he is round, chuck a bucket of water over is van and say normally thats £10 but i'll only charge you £5 for the clean. Then dial a friend on your phone for a bit flick him the V sign and go about the rest of your life

More deluded than cheeky.

That's funny!

anyone who pays for bin cleaning in our street would be mad, the bins end up shoved back on any random driveway, even if they've got numbers painted on them.

I've often seen bin cleaning vehicles but didn't know they only charged £1.50 - what a bargain.

Would be no good round here though - we don't have bins (just various bags)

I wouldn't have paid him either but I don't blame him for trying :rotfl:

To be honest the bin cleaner had nothing to lose by asking.

Cheeky yes but no harm in trying...

If I was the bin cleaner I'd have knocked on the OP's door, told him my mistake and that if he enjoyed his clean bin I could do it regularly, but would require payment in the future.
