Bin Wars

Series 1, episode 0

Cuts to our rubbish collections are causing public outrage in Britain. Householders are up in arms about the state of their bins as over 150 councils, with another 50 reported to be likely to follow, are axing weekly collections. Dispatches investigates whether the nation's anger over fortnightly collections is justified, examining why the changes have been brought about and why they have resulted in a level of protest reminiscent of the petrol crisis of 2001.
