RIBBLE VALLEY businesses are being asked to fill in borough council paperwork


before their bins can be emptied. The council has sent letters to local businesses,


asking them to complete paperwork which will give it the authorisation to collect the rubbish. The paper­


work is required by law. In addition businesses are required to put their


rubbish in orange refuse sacks or in bundles with


green trade refuse stickers. These sacks and stickers can be bought at the coun­


cil offices in Church Walk. The price is £16.50 plus VAT per 50 sacks or stickers. In the letter, the council’s engineering manager,
