Action over bulky uplifts delay

Aberdeenshire Council’s bulky uplift service – which is based in Inverurie – has had a large number of requests recently for the removal of items. That has led to a delay of several weeks before items can be picked up.

After receiving complaints I asked the Waste Service if there were any steps that could be taken to speed things up. As a result the Stonehaven team is to help by dealing with requests in our area as quickly as possible.

Some of the bin crews work Monday to Thursday and some work Tuesday to Friday, and supervisors are to book overtime on Mondays and Fridays to clear the backlog.
