Your council has only 13k people. I very much doubt that they run their own garbage collection. Your reluctance to make a short phone call is rather silly.

They are private contractors, but they do the little (far-flung) villages around here on the same day.

The next tiny town past Ross is Tunbridge. They’re managed by Southern Midlands Council but again, their general rubbish collection is today.

What geographical area do these contractors service over the entire week?

I don’t know but it’s highly unlikely they’d have to go through this village on more than one day a week.

Next week it’s the FOGO bins. General rubbish and recycling are today.

I’m not going to bother ringing the council just to have them laugh at me.

It’s annoying having missed a collection but not worth brooding over :)
