'Binfluencer' Andy documents town's top 12 rubbish containers

- Sentinel Reporter

A DAD has once again used his hobby to create what could be Britain's most rubbish calendar entirely dedicated to his hometown's best bins.

'Bin-fluencer' Andy Bailey, 51, who is originally from Stoke-on-Trent, spent the last year scouring the streets of Congleton for his 12 favourite rubbish containers to put into a 2026 charity calendar.

The dad-of-two's dirty dozen feature in his 'Bins of Congleton' calendar, which can now be bought for £15.

Andy's obsession with waste disposal began in 2023 when he noticed the bins in his hometown were 'accidental works of art.

He said the variety of styles and designs 'fascinated him' and has gone on to log more than 144 litter containers online.

Andy released his first calendar last year and says he has done the same again due to popular demand.
