The Right To Use Our Nearest Tip

It is such a long trip to Pyke Quarry from Stone that we struggle, as pensioners, to lug great quantities of rubbish at a time, to avoid going so often.

Village council and Gloucestershire County Council are negotiating with self Gloucester so that we can use the tip and on the cards

This would be most helpful, I do hope it can be finally achieved.

This facility would be a great help to us who live n Stone. The drive to the current facility at Horsley is a long journey!

Thornbury recycling is just a few miles away from us in Stone. Makes sense to use nearest centre to reduce use of car.

Whole heartedly agree with this petition. All our shopping etc. is in Thornbury as it is the nearest Town for us. We have always seen Thornbury as “the” town for all our services.

Thornbury is so much closer to us.

Councils really should cooperate on green matters. I regard Thornbury as my local shopping centre and use it more than weekly. Why cannot I, in return, use the tip there?

It makes far more sense to travel to Thornbury than travelling to Horsley to dispose of our household waste and it far more sustainable on many fronts.

It would be so much more convenient to just go to Thornbury rather then Horsley

Please can we try and look after our planet and use waste and recycling facilities that are convenient for people. This encourages responsible recycling which is of upmost importance.

Thornbury is the principal town we use for shopping, we pay and use the leisure centre, we used the schools in Thornbury, so as cross border activities go, we should use the recycling centre. Wouldn't mind paying a fixed fee per year, a bit like the brown bin charge.

Totally agree with this, travelling double the distance to Pykes Quarry up those pot hole riddled roads makes no sense. Using the tip in Thornbury would encourage us to spend more in the town to double up the trip which further benefits the economy and also to recycle more regularly.

Make more sense to be able to use the Thornbury recycling centre

I live 1 mile from the border of south Gloucestershire so it seems ridiculous to have to drive 15 miles to Horsley when we are trying to protect our planet

As a resident of GL13 ,being able to use Thornbury recycling centre makes more sense on every level.

It would be far more environmentally friendly to visit thornbury recycling centre than drive mile to the nearest site in Gloucestershire.

Thornbury much more convenient, and encouraged users to visit the recycle shop

Definitely an extremely sensible environmental Plan

Residents should be able to use all accessible recycling centres otherwise fly tipping will increase.
