Bin Days - Newport City Council
Meet Duane, Julie and Ben - the latest crew to be featured in our popular docuseries following a day-in-the-life of waste and recycling teams across the UK.
This episode is all about energy!
Not just from the incredible loaders navigating the hilly Newport streets, but also from the first all-electric 'eCollect' RCV to be used in the series!

Loved this!!
Starting my loader job tomo properly excited
23 years as a driver for a local authority . The driver is right it has its stresses, mainly due to politics , noise complaints and unrealistic targets based on how fast you work, instead of time and motion and safe systems of work. That aside i stuck with it because of the hours. Being a class 1 driver, i know what its like doing containers and general haulage and 15 hour days and nights out are the norm. Could not go back to that again. Saying that, i did think about leaving due to the cost of living crises and the fact councils are in a bubble, where they pay in council bands and not what the going hgv rate is. So our wages were way to low for the job we were doing. That has been addressed, due to the fact they could not get any drivers, because they would not apply due to the low wage. That has now been addressed. and the pay reflects the hours and job we do. So the balance is just right now and now drivers are applying for jobs.
Awesome! Would love to see Tamworth Council

As a driver i am on 30 K task and finish max hours 37, realistically less than 30 hours a week
Why aren't the bins on the edge of the kerb like the council policy says??? Lazy public
You want to get the cameras down at my place you’d have a field day, these guys ain’t seen nothing. Try black bin week down higher broughton in Salford you’d be on bricks
funny how their clothes are very clean for rubbish truck crew
