I had an acknowledgement of my report of missed collection.
I rang Cheshire East today and spoke to a helpful lady who informed me that the bin folk had vehicle problems on Monday. She told me to leave the bins out and they hoped to have the bins emptied within 5 working days ! 😎�'�
After hearing the usual excuses of, leave it out and it will be collected within 5 days, and the wagon has broken down again, when pushed, the very pleasant lady at the council reluctantly admitted that the reason the bins are not getting emptied as they should be was down to a shortage of drivers, so why do they constantly try to fob us off with utter rubbish (no pun intended).
Hi
Bins not emptied at Witton Close, CW3 0HZ.
Thanks
Silver bins weren't emptied on Woore Rd either.
Dear Editor, My belief in Cheshire East Council is at an all time low. Not only was our brown bin not collected as reported here recently, coupled with the fact that our silver bin has also not been collected, we also have issue with the road gully at the end of our drive. This remains over flowing with what can only be described as a rancid smelling stagnant water. This has been reported to Cheshire East not only when it was first blocked back in November 2021, but an additional 6 times! The last time being on Friday, when I was initially greeted by a young lady who did not initially realise that I was on the line and stated "I don't want a child with a Burnley accent". Clearly when she did realise that there was someone on the line the phone went dead. It appears to me that incompetence seems to be a common trait at Cheshire East Towers! Please do pass my comments to Rachel Bailey. We also live on Kettle Lane.
Silver bins not emptied yesterday on Monks Lane & Heathfield Road too.
Must be time for a clear out. A few people have tried numbers within the directories and got no response, perhaps AOL should do an audit and see if these businesses are still valid / trading
I submitted another online form but I'm quite sure that it will not make the slightest difference as previous submissions have not achieved anything. It's strange that the feedback page, shown immediately after submitting the report, doesn't work. Can't think why that should be!
Following the missed collections on 9th May, my excess garden waste was not taken as the driver informed me "we've been told not to collect any extra waste as the wagon weights are going through the roof".
Silver bins not collected on Kettle Lane. The email address for CE Customer Services is CheshireEastCouncilCustomerServices@cheshireeast.gov.uk which seems to work, not CheshireEastCustomerServices@cheshireeast.gov.uk which doesn't work.
Have reported using the email address and received an automatic reply saying they should respond within 5 working days.
I have also reported using the Missed Bin Collection report on CE Website but this has proven to be no more use than ornament based on past experience.
Hi,
My sliver bid has been missed also, I live on Longhill Lane.
Hi all
I am looking for recommendations for a cleaner for my elderly parents. They are based in Buerton? I tried a couple of numbers from the directory , but no one replied.
Can anyone recommend anyone?
My mobile number is 07966 575748 if any one can help?
I have now used the 'report a missed collection' form.
Thanks to Kevin for his suggestion but when I tried it to report the silver bin not emptied today it rejected me as not on its list of allowable addresses!!!
Hi
Our silver bin hasn't been collected today. Anyone else affected?
Hi if anyone is looking for part time care work in audlem and can drive please give me a call
On this number 07854244455
Colin, I suggest you send an email to CheshireEastCustomerServices@cheshireeast.gov.uk. We had an issue where the black and silver bins were not collected for more than 6 weeks. If you call to report a missed collection the call goes to a call centre who log it but cannot resolve the issue. Complaining to Customer Services will get a response, although it could take up to 5 days, and it will get resolved. Our bins were emptied on a Saturday morning following the mail to CECS. Normal collection day is Monday. Good luck.
i enjoyed Chis Dyson's well thought out and scientifically based reply to Howard regarding climate change. However I have always unserstood that Flat Earthers were those who denied new scientific thinking, prefering to keep to the old beliefs.
We are all entitled to our beliefs. I hope yours do not lead to you being in that handcart heading for hell. I wish you good luck.
Well, as suspected absolutely nothing happened re the missed collection promised by lunchtime today, so having just spoken to another very friendly chap at C.E. he has assured me that the bins will be emptied today by 6pm (and he said it without laughing so it must be true). But then it got me thinking, has anyone ever seen the council refuse collectors working anywhere near 6pm, ON A FRIDAY?
Funny that Colin because my neighbours reported it online on the day of the failed collection as did I the next day. I also rang last Friday and was told we had to wait 5 working days for them to come – which should have been Tuesday at the latest. Fat chance. Still at least we're not charged for it like Cheshire West, but I suspect that won't be too long coming.
Howard, I think you are on the wrong community website?
Try Shanghai Online or Mumbai Online.
From where I an sitting the climate looks fine to me. In fact the sooner it heats up the better because £1.00 a litre for heating oil is getting a little ridiculous. Still, thats what happens when you pay people to stay at home.
In the March 2022 edition of Northwest Business Insider, Sam Ashworth (The Project Director for Hurstwood Holdings, the parent company of Tabley Homes (Audlem) Ltd) wrote the following about their proposed development in Audlem;
"We have been very encouraged by the reaction to our proposals by both the local councils and communities"
CE certainly should not have commented as the adjudicator on the planning application. I will be asking APC if they have commented, there comments should have been negative rather than encouraging, given that the proposal breaches the Audlem Neighbourhood Plan. I was not aware of any discussion that Tabley Homes held with the "communities" in Audlem – Was anyone else consulted? This seems like PR cattle manure to me. Hurstwood holdings is an established group that pushes through this sort of development nationwide.
PLEASE go to the CE planning portal (Application No: 22/1302N), read the comments some have made already and register yours

The world is going to hell in a handcart, as they say, and today the World Meteorological Operation announced that the climate crisis broke records in 2021 and average temperatures are already settling at 1.1C above pre-industrial levels (if they get to 1.5C, we have had it!). However, all is not lost, yet. Research carried out at Leeds University, checked by the engineering firm Arun and the C40 group of world cities suggest that if we all (me and you) sign up to six "shifts" in our lifestyles "individuals and communities can make a huge difference". They suggest:-
1. Eat a largely plant-based diet, withe healthy portions and no waste.
2. Buy no more than three new items of clothing a year.
3. Keep electrical products for at least seven years.
4. Take no more than one short-haul flight every three years and one long-haul flight every eight years.
5. Get rid of personal motor vehicles if you can – and if not keep hold of your existing vehicle for longer.
6. Make one life shift to nudge the system, such as moving to a "green" energy supplier, insulating your home or changing your pension supplier.
The study assessed the impact of consumption by people in the world's leading cities and found these six steps could cut global emissions by between 25% and 27%. "Live for joy, not for stuff" they say.
