Despite the councils comments on who's responsibility the rubbish is once its in your garden, if you were to do the same to them they would certainly involve the police.
Can you get someone with a camera to wait around until the refuse collectors come around & catch them in the act of making a mess? That would then be even better ammunition to get the council to clean up thier act.
Also, it may not actually be the refuse collectors fault you know, as plastic bin bags are so thin these days that when full they break apart very easily.
I have a back gate that is very hard to open so I have to drop them over it & they often split when they land (if not aready) so I have to nip round the house to pick up the rubbish afterwards.
Mind you I have neighbours that just dont bother putting there rubbish out for the refuse collectors, they just put it out, does not matter what day or if its in a bin bag
