Waste collection company Divert.co.uk are offering a totally free opportunity to treat your least favourite person - just in time for this Valentine’s Day.

Company spokesman Mark Hall explained: “We have plenty of trucks in need of a good name and we thought, why not give people the chance to put their trashy ex behind them once and for all?”

“It couldn’t be any easier to arrange either, all you have to do is click on the link, fill out the form, and hey presto you’ve whacked their name on a bin lorry.”

Hall continued: “We’ve all trash talked about an ex before. So imagine the pleasure you’ll get by seeing their name on the side of a bin lorry full of rubbish.

“What better way is there to let that trashy ex go than by waving their namesake truck off into the sunset and out of your life for good?”

Abbie from Aylesbury said: “I always wanted my ex to do something useful with his time, and in a funny way at least the new truck named after him will be doing something good for society.”

“And to add to the joke, at least his truck won’t be leaving a mess behind everywhere it goes!”

So if your rubbish ex deserves to have a bin truck named after them, head over to https://www.divert.co.uk/name-a-bin-truck/, and follow the simple instructions.

Hall added: “We can even let you know which town we’ve relocated your ‘ex’ to just in case you want to take a picture and send it to them so they get the hint.

“Alternatively you could just move on and forget about them, but to be honest with you, where’s the fun in that?”
