A September 2026 Armagh I report described residents’ frustration over missed brown-bin collections at Forest Glade in Lurgan. Residents said food and garden waste had gone uncollected since 17 August, causing smells and maggots. They challenged explanations that parked cars near a nursery blocked the larger collection lorry, suggesting earlier collections could avoid busy drop-off times. Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Council acknowledged the access problem and said it was working with the nursery and residents. It apologised and said crews would attempt a recovery collection on 12 September.
