Now the fitters can't get rid of the tubes. My neighbour has a cardboard recycling company and he won't take the tubes because he can't get rid of them - something to do with the glue used to make the tube that makes them unrecylable.
He has to chase carpet fitters off when they try to put the tubes in the skip.
