There’s a certain Dr Who / TARDIS element to this … a mysterious box appears on the street, and everyone walks by, ignoring it … until you spot it, then wonder how it got there.
I spotted these bins for the first time yesterday. I’m guessing this is a new solution from Lewisham for flats and multiple occupancy properties that do not have space for the usual grey bin? Or is this something else they’re trialling?
How long do you think it will be before we see people trying to stuff cardboard, builders rubble and stinky old mattresses into them?
I feared the same when I saw them. They are a great idea in principle, but since people can’t seem to manage even rubbish / recycling sorting and management, I wonder how well adopted they may be.
Nice idea to increase composting though - that should be praised
Yes, I absolutely do think it’s a great initiative 
and I hope people won’t abuse them.
