Not sure on this but another thought is, note to binmen
"It's your bin, when you have emptied it, if you don't want it getting damaged or stolen put it back in my garden, I won't take any responsibility for it if you don't"

Even if its your's or not, you commited the offence by leaving it out, eg you will get fined for speeding or parking offences in a hired or borrowed car

Food for thought or a load of rubbish.
