The system used for rubbish/garbage collection in your local area is not working properly. This is causing problems for you and your neighbours. Write a letter to the local council. In your letter: describe how the rubbish collection system is not working properly explain how this is affecting you and your neighbours suggest what should be done about the problem

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to let you know that the refuse collection at Chevron Drive has not worked properly in the

last

two months. It has become impossible for everyone to keep their trash at the collection point because it is not as regular as it was six months ago. Let me first explain how it usually works, the trucks pick up the rubbish twice a week at 9 am.

However

, in the

last

few months, they are unable to meet up to the scheduled date and time.

Furthermore

, when they show up, some bins are left behind because they are in a hurry to meet up with the other collection points.

This

is beginning to have adverse effects on our neighbourhood. The bins are piled up and everywhere stinks. When it rains, the trash is washed away and

thus

can affect the environment

such

as floods and thereby spreading diseases. I would suggest the trucks should be properly maintained and upgraded, it may involve additional costs.

Also

, a report of the neighbourhood visited should be carefully monitored to easily identify the areas not visited daily.

Finally

, A suggestion box in every community will help improve the processes in each community. I believe the council would carefully look into the matter and the above suggestions will be considered. Yours faithfully, Dan
