Our bins are emptied weekly here in Swindon and we have weekly recycling collections. That said we in this part of town don't have a wheely bin we have bags. So I suppose we do need a weekly collection. But if we had a wheely bin I don't see that a fortnightly collection of rubbish would be a problem.
Presumably fortnightly collections save money? So why implement weekly ones? Ah, of course it is because the ConDems always do what the Daily Heil sorry Daily Mail says http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-409070/Councils-fortnightly-bin-collection-stealth.html
Better weekly rubbish collections than spending the money saved by fortnightly ones on children in care say or home helps or libraries.
