IN recent letters in the Star, recycling work has had a bad press. We have found the service to be excellent.

The bin men seem to work longer days now but our containers are always emptied.

Mr Morris, who saw a rat crossing Ashtons Green Drive, should be aware that littering is far more likely to attract rats.

People should stop moaning and do their bit to improve the town’s recycling rates.
