Common use of Litter Bins Clause in Contracts

Litter Bins. Litter bins will be emptied and the immediate vicinity checked for cleanliness by one of the crews on duty in the WNW Locality Team. The SLA is for all bins to be emptied without any overflowing and the frequencies of visits to bins will be adjusted to ensure this commitment is met. However, where a litter bin is full, for example because of a local event or exceptional busy period, the service will empty the bin within 24 hours of it being reported. A survey of bins across the area will be undertaken to identify bins that require refurbishment or replacement. The replacement/refurbishment of existing damaged bins will be prioritised within the existing capital budget (see appendix B). The apportionment of litter bin repairs and replacements across wards will be shared with Elected Members prior to any repairs or replacements taking place. Any remaining budget will be apportioned to wards on the basis of the existing number of bins in each xxxx. This could then be used for additional bins, subject to capacity on emptying rounds. Existing bins in reasonable condition that are underused will be relocated free of charge by the service. The provision, suitability of location and condition of litterbins will be subject to a review during the term of the SLA which will inform a litter bin strategy for investment for future years.
