A pensioner has been angered by bins being left on his street which he says are making it a 'dumping ground'. Christopher Reilly, of Petersham Mews, Lenton, claims bins are being returned to the middle of the street by binmen, and are then not brought in by neighbours, which is creating a mess outside of his home.
The 80-year-old resident, who has lived in the cul-de-sac for 40 years, said the line of bins has led to fly tipping. And Mr Reilly called on someone to take responsibility for the issue.
"What the problem is, is not with the students but with the council; they're not putting the bins back where they should be going. The arrangement is they collect the bins at the end of the drive and they're supposed to put them back there. But they don't so what happens is they're all in the middle of the road and then people think 'lets dump some rubbish here'," Mr Reilly said.
