What comes before depends on the person's situation and nation; the first\nsafe step is to select the current official route rather than assume one UK process.\n\n## What this family covers\n\nReport the precise public-space location and condition to the authority or landowner responsible for cleansing and retain its response.\n\nThe ordinary discovery journey is to select the jurisdiction-specific route, follow\nthe responsible authority or provider's current instructions, and retain the\nconfirmation, referral, decision or next-step information it produces.\n\n## If the ordinary route does not fit\n\nIf a route is unavailable, the circumstances fall outside it, or the source signals\nan urgent, safeguarding, clinical or legal boundary, stop and follow that authority's\nexception or complaint handoff. The bundle records this branch but does not decide it.\n\n## Official routes\n\n- [England: Find your local council](https://www.gov.uk/find-local-council)\n- [Scotland: Bins and recycling in Scotland](https://www.mygov.scot/browse/housing-local-services/rubbish-and-recycling)\n- [Wales: Recycling and waste in Wales](https://www.gov.wales/recycling-waste-circular-economy)\n- [Northern Ireland: Rubbish, recycling and waste in Northern Ireland](https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/information-and-services/environment-and-outdoors/waste-and-recycling)\n\nThese are links and original navigation summaries. A national discovery page is a\nhandoff to the current service, not evidence that eligibility, evidence, costs,\ndeadlines or remedies are identical across nations or providers.\n\n## What may follow\n\nThe result can feed the next family in **Report street and environmental problems**, another enclosing\nprocess, or a provider-specific review or redress route. Use Graph to inspect the\nordinary and exception episodes, sources, actors, requirements, outputs and outcomes.\n\n## Review status\n\nThis record is population-complete for discovery and requires specialist review\nbefore any legal, clinical, safeguarding or high-impact operational claim is\ndescribed as release-grade.",
