lets have a cleaning thread.

We have containers for clothes in some places too. There were lots for bottles, and even paper and cardboard but these are less common now recycle bins have been issued to each house.

The charity bags are posted through the door, more occasionally now but there used to be lots of them. You get it a few days before they come to collect, with the collection day labelled on the bag. The name of the charity and what they are collecting is on the label too. Among other things, the general cutback on plastic bags may have reduced these too as many will have been wasted. I remember, in their heyday we had numerous, occasionally even more than one on the same day, which we kept aside if not used for the charity, using more generally. Many people here did the same. As implied earlier, there is no official system, and anyone could organise such a system.
