Just interested in what people are doing about carcass disposal these days ........
o the bots after processingAre you meaning a carcass which is unfit to enter the food chain or ABP after processing?
We're now on 3 weekly collectionsIn the bin but don't forget to pop the bin out. A butchered fallow carcass, even triple bagged, stinks to absolute high heaven if you forget to put the bin out and it spends 2 hot weeks in your bin.
So I've heard![]()
I break down the waste and freeze it, then it goes in the bin the night before collection.We're now on 3 weekly collections![]()
Disposing of deer waste (gralloch, offal, or carcasses) directly into a watercourse is strictly illegal and a serious pollution/biosecurity offense.a) Head, legs & innards at scene, into high crops or a convenient ditch or similar.
b) Hide, bones and detritus in household waste.

Why would you chuck the waste into "high crops"? That sounds like the sort of behaviour that's likely to result in you being kicked off the ground in short order. That would certainly be the case if they were my crops!a) Head, legs & innards at scene, into high crops or a convenient ditch or similar.

That's alright, I'm sure your taxes have gone down to compensateWe're now on 3 weekly collections![]()
So are we. I'm in favour of it. Recycling and kitchen waste is still collected weekly. It's just the general waste bin that's on 3 week intervals. People are now taking much more care over sorting their waste and recycling as much as possible. Managing and reducing waste is a shared responsibility, and the consumer needs to accept their share of that responsibility.We're now on 3 weekly collections![]()
The biggest problem is people are lazy and messy, sorting waste is too much effort so moan the council wont pick up the slack.So are we. I'm in favour of it.

I do recall some objections when 3 week collections were mooted, on the basis that it would result in an increase in fly tipping, but that fear doesn't appear to have materialised in this area. I cannot speak for elsewhere.
In this area, I think people have embraced the concept of better waste management, which is good. Of course there were grumblings initially, but that seems to be a fairly common human response to any proposed change. Once the change is adopted, and people have adapted, everything settles down and the benefits become apparent.The biggest problem is people are lazy and messy, sorting waste is too much effort so moan the council wont pick up the slack.
THe litter on the roads is disgusting, i hope fly tipping doesnt get worse

A ditch is a water course that is how water is run off the landThey’re not watercourses.
