Myself, and all my neighbours do this.

Happily, and quite easily.

None of us have found the litter wouldn't fit into our bins.

Nor have we bothered to phone the council, for them to arrange a H.B.C. employee to come and remove it.

Primaily because we can easily do it ourselves, but also because by the time they got here the wind could have blown it elsewhere, making it someone else's problem.
