Once a week collection is worth fighting for. Many reasons have already been given above, but I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned that overflows from wheelie bins will likely cause an increase in vermin, especially if Lewisham tries to insist on one bin per household - regardless of how many people comprise the household.

There are other ways to save/make money - Lewisham residents have to pay a 'congestion charge' (i.e. toll) when we drive into City of London or City of Westminster. Why is there no reciprocal charge, especially for the compactors and other heavy container trucks that come in to the recycling centres in Lewisham from Westminster?
