They might still be owned by the council but they're franchised out. I checked with my husband, who's worked in that industry for 30+ years. He personally manages 100+ sites, including ones in Yorkshire - in fact he's going to one in Doncaster on Tuesday and the poor !!!!!!! has to stay there overnight.
In any case, this thread has been resurrected after over a year.
Not Doncaster
I know 100% that our refuse men are hired and employed by my own employer who is the council.
I’m not trying to be obtuse just saying that not all of them are:)0 -
