Please ensure you do not put glass in the black bin liners, please put any glass items in the box outside the back door for the cleaner to remove. We would be grateful if you could refrain from putting wet wipes down the loo as we are on a septic tank system and these tend to clog it up! (The main road access has now reopened!) (@ April 2021)
