Overflowing bin next to SAI Mot Center on Hardy Road

There appears to have been an abandoned recycling bin next to the motor garage at the end of Hardy Road. However, it has been getting filled with rubbish over the course of the last month -- and a few days ago there was rubbish thrown out all around it as if the foxes had gotten into the bin. The recycling bin and glass box needs to be removed so that passers-by don't continue to overflow it -- and all trash disposed of.
