    I'm not talking about household waste that contains plastics or anything that isn't safe to burn, so leave it out.

    What stuff will you be burning?

    By the time we've recycled paper, cardboard, metal, glass and plastic containers and put perishable stuff in the compost heap, there's very little to go in our bin apart from some non-recyclable plastic packaging.

    I must admit that I usually recycle cardboard up the chimney.

    But I agree, after the recycling is sorted, two of us don't even half fill a wheele bin in a month.

    Not for long. Useless council are cutting it.

    As far as I am aware, councils are required to provide refuse and recycling services.

    They don't have to do it weekly but they must provide a reasonable service.

    What is it that you want to burn?

    If you can't help with the request, don't bother posting.

    The wheelie bin above is the sort of thing that would be ideal, but as mentioned above I think the wheels might melt. Also it's galvanised so probably not suitable for burning in. Could easily make a few holes in it though.

    I don't think anyone here is going to assist you in bringing about the next air quality apocalypse.
