Help with son's survey please

Penny_Watcher

1. How many adults in your house? 2

2. How many children? 2

3. How many black sacks per week do you put out for the dustman? 4 (but they're only half full because our kitchen bin is smallish - so I suppose the real answer is 2 full sacks).

4. How many bags of recycling do you put out per week? (not garden waste). We have fortnightly recycling. One large plastic box of glass and tins and a bag of newspapers and magazines.

Good Luck

Hi there

1. 2 adults

4. 2 yellow recylcling sacks per month.. just for tins, foil and plastics..

paper has its own bin,
garden/bio waste has its own bin
and glass goes in recycle bins in supermarket

november

1. How many adults in your house? 3
2. How many children? 1
3. How many black sacks per week do you put out for the dustman?
1 wheely bin every other week so that probable equals 2 black sacks per week
4. How many bags of recycling do you put out per week? (not garden waste).
1 green wheely bin (cardboard), green box (glass, tins, old clothes) and bag for paper/brochures (junk mail mostly!) every other week. Plastic bags are taken to the supermarket for recycling. So probably 2 black sacks recycling as well.

Our major problem is plastic packaging. It can't be recycled round here. (I know you didn't ask but just in case its of interest)

2. How many children?
3. How many black sacks per week do you put out for the dustman?
4. How many bags of recycling do you put out per week? (not garden waste).

Many thanks and I apologise if this is in the wrong section.

2 Adults
0 Children
2 or 3 small tesco bags of rubbish (so half a sack?!?!)
2 (full) recycle boxes per fortnight

(have stopped buying those tetrapak cartons as they're really bulky, and we can't recycle them - we live in a 2nd floor flat and it's a treck out to the communal bins, so it's best to buy recyclable stuff instead which can go in the boxes!!)
