Hi all 

What's the right wat to get rid of branches etc can see can put garden waste in with regular rubbish. No one Been at house for a while so bit overgrown with some weed / bush. Can you put branches in road bin or beside it or is it best to cut up and bag it? Or none of the above :) beautiful pic attached

Hello

 In my area, there are no Podas skips close enough to use so,  tree/bush cuttings  are left at the side of the basura so as not to fill it  ( *then, household rubbish gets left on the streets - not good!)

 The bins are emptied every night & they  arrange collection of the garden rubbish by a different vehicle. It could be there a few days but it will go eventually. It seems each town hall has there own arrangements.

Cheers

In our area you are not supposed to do this (even though people do). We are supposed to take it to the ecoparque.

There should be a sticker on the general waste bin telling you which day you can leave the green waste bagged up at the side of the bin.  Where I live for example it is on a Sunday.
