If we go back to the very start of the incident, where the bin policeman spotted the offending microwave, then spent time writing out a warning notice, going round to the front door, posting it through the letter box, thereby provoking a discussion in which many regular contributors to this forum have had to spend many hours arguing the pros and cons of the council bin collection service (all cons, it seems. I haven't seen any pros).....

If, instead of him doing all that, he'd just stuck the microwave on the back of his van and taken it to the tip, we'd have all been spared the palava.......

Is there a lesson there for the council? Or are the bin policemen too 'important' to get their hands dirty?
