Thing is Katex not all bins are collected from outside of the owner's property. Ours for instance ends up in a little huddle with the neighbours' bins and a couple from round the corner, so they can't really tell how many bins belong to where. But when I queried with the council the fact that I know one house has two bins, one of which did not originate round here, they said it wasn't up to the bin men to wonder if the bins belonged to that house or how many bins they had or were entitled to. It is just their job to empty them.

I also questioned if they could go a bin hunting with their chip tracking device and they said only if I spotted what I suspected to be our bin and then they could attempt to prove it! I ask you! How do you tell one wheelie bin from another? The only identifying marks ours had were the stick on numbers which have no doubt been pulled off by now.
