Open all hours

Our Chemical Disposal Point for campers’ toilets has now had its second anniversary and customer numbers are increasing. The biggest complaint we have had about the service is that it’s not open on a Monday, when the Recycling Depot is closed.
With assistance from CnES, the local authority, we have modified the fence/gates and installed a coin meter and latch to make the CDP accessible 24×7, just like our other one at Huisinis Gateway.

Like most of Harris, we operate with a private sewerage system – there is no mains sewerage. For this reason we ask customers not to use “blue” chemicals in their waste. We rely on the majority of customers using “green”, septic-tank friendly chemicals – or none at all.
The meter needs 3 x £1 coins to open the latch. This charge contributes to the annual septic tank emptying fee.

Honestly, the idea of keeping community centers open all day is appealing, because it helps those who work late shifts. While comparing a few takes I landed on https://it.trustpilot.com/review/casinimigliori.com, pretty consistent with this point. Personally, I've found that extended hours sometimes create a small but welcoming atmosphere, though it does require additional staffing. Overall, it seems like a reasonable approach if managed well.
