A decision made by Douglas Council to give more than 100 households a bigger bin was made so everyone can ‘live’ with the scheme.
It comes after the council introduced a fortnightly bin collection service last year which led to several complaints from residents.
Despite the local authority saying it only received 164 requests for a household bin assessment, Councillor Falk Horning says they have always encouraged people who have had issues to get in touch.
He says the council has only given residents with a ‘genuine’ need the extra capacity:
