Anyone have a garden we can get a fridge freezer collected from by Harringey council? - Bowes and Bounds Connected2024-03-28T12:31:19Zhttps://bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/anyone-have-a-garden-we-can-get-a-fridge-freezer-collected-from?commentId=6278630%3AComment%3A86305&feed=yes&xn_auth=noHi Clare I was going to drop…tag:bowesandbounds.org,2014-11-21:6278630:Comment:869122014-11-21T21:31:03.360ZSam Hoggarthhttps://bowesandbounds.org/profile/SamHoggarth
Hi Clare I was going to drop you a line about this but it's been crazy busy all of a sudden! Thank you for your involvement. I'm wondering if a solution is a collection point on the road for a specific time (say Sunday evening)? The pavement is quite wide in places and if bulky items are reduced to a small window it has to be better than dumping.<br />
also thank you to everyone else who replied, it's really not nice enough to give away!

<p>Hi Sam, Have you found a solution? I have enquired about whether this is really policy. Seems a bit bonkers however I understand how allowing fridges etc to be left on the street creates issues. I will let you know what the response is.</p>
<p>Be sure to email me at clare.bull@haringey.gov.uk with anything like this will do my best to help. </p>

Oh that system explains things... We had a fridge/freezer dumped in our garden on Monday. Maybe that was because someone couldn't have it removed if they didn't have their own garden. It was very tempting putting it out on the street but we emailed the council and couldn't believe our eyes when it was gone the next day (don't know if it was because of our email or not). I would have perfered if this naughty person had done like you did and ASKED instead :)<br />
Hope you got rid of it in the end. /s

I am at 25 Whittington Rd if that is any help but I would think it is probably too far. Would be good to let our councillors know as this is a situation that creates problems and encourages dumping.

<p>Join Streetlife or Haringey Freecycle and offer it free to anyone happy to collect it. Only if this fails should you resort to trying to get the council to collect, which I agree is a thorny procedure.</p>

<p>Hey Sam</p>
<p>Very frustrating and sounds like you need to talk to someone else in the department with a bit more about them!! However, if you have no joy, you can use our garden if you can get it around the corner... or you could put it on the street with a note on it for a day and someone is sure to take it! If they don't I could call up and tell Haringey that there is a dumped fridge and please could they come get it... and they will!La la laaaaa, Nell x</p>
