I disagree with that three week collection desision because say those people that have children and babies there is going to be loads of nappies outside smelling until you collect the rubbish that is not a good idea.
Plus you have rats hanging around i surgest you cancel the desicion or think it over again

My wheelie bin is full to the brim after two weeks and I recycle everything I can. Why are you doing this. I think I pay enough council tax.

Bins are often overflowing in our little cul de sac on a two week collection can't bear to think what it's going to be like if we go to three weeks not only that cant be just me that thinks there will be MORE fly tipping

I for one do not have anywhere to store 3 weeks waste. This is an absolute disgrace.

Saying no to 3weekly collections, it's a health risk/hazard, bad enough on fortnightly collections, as a family of four we're already putting out 4-6 bags outside of the bin as it is.......it's disgusting enough already

Totally unacceptable - where are all these overflowing black bags supposed to go - on the streets? Cats rip them open all the time where I live - even if you wash food containers out before putting in the bag they still smell. Get your act together Somerset - are we getting a refund of our council tax as you are reducing the service we are paying for???

With two small children we'll never manage to keep it under the requirements for collection. Needs to remain fortnightly.

The ever growing seagull and rat population will be happy with the overflowing bins

This will lead to fly-tipping and rubbish around the streets, not good in an area dependant upon tourist revenue.
