Stockport Council’s bin collectors are enforcing a strict new rule: open lids = no collection. While safety is the stated reason—after a 2016 worker injury linked to unstable bins—the crackdown has sparked public outrage, especially as residents already face rising costs and reduced services. Many see it as petty and poorly communicated, with some bins left overflowing and others picked up only after lid fixes. Council officials admit they were caught off guard by the rollout, now scrambling to adjust while balancing worker safety with resident expectations.
