Heavy green bin at 189 Hughenden Road blocking pavement and sight
Reported via mobile in the Litter/litter bins category by Agnes Dodwell at 22:18, Fri 31 October 2025
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council 2 days, 13 hours, 16 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 8362380.
There is an extremely heavy green bin at 189 Hughenden Road blocking the pavement. It has the wrong stuff in it and no QR code so waste collection won't empty it. No idea what's in it - it's extremely heavy and can't be wheeled out of the way. It's extremely dangerous for cars turning out of the Hughenden Car Park by 191 Hughenden Rd as the bin blocks the vision. Can this bin be emptied and moved out of the way please?
