G.l. General.
The arrangements at present existing in connection with the
collection and disposal of house refuse continue to work satisfactorily.
The method of storage is by means of sanitary dustbins and some
12,000 re emptied weekly. The dustbins ->re provided and maintained
by the owners of the properties concerned ad the Council secure this
by a local Act - The Frith Improvement Act 1920. Owing to the
difficulty in obtaining the regulation dust-bins at the present time,
a considerable number of house refuse receptacles consist of old baths,
boxes, etc. The difficulty in handling these odd receptacles tends
to slow collection. Disposal is effected by barging under Contract,
and these arrangements are still worlcin, very satisfactorily,
