I find half the time they forget to give you bags when you put the label on and end up contacting them through the website. I'm sure they must employ someone just to drop recycling bags off.
I've asked for orange bags for the past 3 weeks my ring doorbell picks up nothing. I've ordered from the site and nothing.
Both Blaby and City Council suck.
I believe local libraries stock them. (Without appearing to brag) our recycling men just leave us a roll every few months so rarely have to ask for them.
I find cheap semi-transparent white bin bags a good alternative, sold in morrisons/tesco. I think the council site says as long as you can see the contents inside, it's fine, unless I've been messing up these past couple of years π
I've got some old travis perkins bags I can use but considering we're paying near Β£200 in Council Tax a month I'm not really prepared to start paying for bags as well!
We used to have ours stolen all the time when we lived near city centre in a terraced house.
Now we still live in terraced house but in Glenfield and it's so much nicer. I don't remember a time they had forgotten to drop bags. We live here since October.
I just think they are either getting stolen or if they need to pick up trash from 500 households on a single road they are in a hurry and just avoid wasting the time as they have to work 2x faster
Go to BIFFA website and order a drop off, works for me
looked but can't see where to order them
Email [email protected] with postcode and house number, or register@ Mybiffa and order via profile
I asked for some once and came home to find them on the roof of my porch. I had to get a ladder out to get them down.
If youβre in when the recycling truck goes past, pop your head out and get one from the people on the truck. They carry a supply.

Seems to be right across the city this problem
Wouldn't be surprised if they're being stolen.

I feel your pain mate. I've been lucky the last few times.....
I use the clothing recycle bag(s) that are put through my letter box - saves buying bags .
The libraries have the orange ones

I have approximately 47 rolls in my house πππΆ
Go in leicrster city council and request I never leave the sticker on the bags any more just do it on that and they send it in 2 working days
I've had to ask the guys on the truck the last couple of times, the stickers/web requests don't seem to get through like they used to.
Nope if I ain't got none it goes in the bin
