I'm still awaiting my bin too and a reply to my e-mail which the company promised within 24 hours.

They don't answer the phone
They don't reply to e-mails
They haven't delivered my bin yet
They have suspended garden waste collections and I'm on my 9th green bag already      &shake&

Could I make a suggestion, I have had a word with the neighbors, who after much deliberation, have reluctantly agreed to give you, on a permanent basis, a local solution.

I just received this email notification.

My first collection will now be four weeks today and my new brown bin is already full.

“We know these are unprecedented and challenging times for everyone, with many disruptions to everyday life. 
 
Unfortunately there is going to be a two week delay in the start of our new Garden Waste Collection Service, as we are unable to get key equipment that we require to deliver this service as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
This will mean that you will miss one collection from your annual subscription, so we will add this on at the end of the year, to ensure you have all the collections you have paid for.
 
We apologise for any inconvenience caused, and thank you for your understanding and patience.”

Maybe Bryson haven't got the wagon Brian  $donald$ The two pickups I've seen delivering the bins look rather old.

Still no bin or a reply to my e-mail but I did receive this e-mail today saying

Two brown bins delivered to a next-door-but-one neighbour this morning.  We had ours over a week ago, as well as someone across the road.

Logic would have said you deliver all in the same road at the same time!

Bryson have now been to our cul-de-sac 4 times & still we have no brown bin, what a waste of petrol, what happened to improving Carbon Footprint etc. A lack of joined up thinking me thinks  &shake&

I had a surprise when I saw the Bryson lorry in the street and it dropped off a brown bin for me after they had scanned it first.     So I put 4 of the old green bags in the brown bin and filled the thing up
There are another 4 bags left awaiting a second bin

I had a bigger surprise when I later received a phone call about having a second bin delivered.   Anyway I've ordered and paid for a second bin at a cost of £20.00 for the bin and £20.00 for delivery of the bin.      I've no choice really as on most collection days I would need two bins

Now I am beginning to understand why garden waste collections have been delayed by two weeks.
