How many wheelie bins do you have and what are they for?

I have a green one for garden waste, a black one for normal waste and a burgundy one for recycling glass, plastic and metal. A paper one is on the way - not sure what colour it will be

Where are live, we do not have wheelie bin, we still use plastic bag, maybe because most of the village compost most of their wastes, I have never seen a wheelie bin anywhere in the village.

Wow, so the binmen actually pick up bags. I heard they are refusing to move wheelie bins in some areas if they cannot move it with one finger. Lol

They actually give us bin bag every week when they collect the bin bags, like I said, its quite rural, loads of people compost/recycle so the bin bags tends to be small and half full for most households.

I didn't know there were countries still using wheel bins. In America they just bag it all up also. However I do have a wheel bin in my backyard, but I only used that to move compost around when I use to have a garden.

In UK some area use them and other areas don't.
