"I am planning on drilling a hole through my bin and put a lock through it, is there a business to be had in future? I wonder" Tongue in cheek surely Nevermind. I mean, who would want the hassle of unlocking the bin in order for it to be emptied? Speaking as someone whose bin men arrive before 7:00 am, not me. Or do you plan on giving a spare key to your bin-men?      Report

Another thought on how to avoid this new tax...  simply take your rubbish to the nearest "authorities-provided" litter bin and stick it all in that.  Or will the authorities retaliate by either (a) removing all litter bins or (b) making it an offence to use them ?    Report

Are you thinking of a remote control lock, we at SECUREABIN can cater for all tastes, it will just cost a little more.nevermind      Report

Don't forget to give the binman a spare key . . ... . . . The present cannot be revealed to people until it has become yesterday.    Report
