A resident says they pay the council extra for an additional green waste bin collection but the council misses one scheduled pickup, leaving the bin unemptied on the last collection date. The resident is asking whether they can claim their money back.

According to reports, the green waste service is scheduled to run 10 times per year. In this case, the missed collection occurs at the final scheduled pickup, prompting questions about compensation or refunds for service failures. The available coverage focuses on the resident’s situation and the terms of the paid collection arrangement, rather than providing information about the council’s response or any formal refund process.

The accounts are consistent in describing the same core facts: the resident pays extra, collections are expected 10 times annually, and the council does not empty the bin on a scheduled date. However, they do not detail different legal standards, council policies, or outcomes beyond the resident’s question about eligibility for a refund.
