What a waste: Familes pay extra for bin collections

Families who are frustrated at only having their bins collected every three weeks, have started paying a private firm to take away their rubbish.

Josh Morris started the collection business 18 months ago and now empties up to 200 bins per day around Greater Manchester.

Sarah Howarth from Bury has three children and two dogs so often found her bins overflowing. She has been using Josh's service for the last five months.

She told Adrian Chiles: "We accumulate a lot of rubbish. People say 'why would I pay extra?', but Josh is offering a choice. I need that rubbish removed and I don鈥檛 want it in my garden.鈥
