If sum1 came to me and asked to put stuff in my bin..I'd think them a bit weird..just do it..its a bin..I dnt care..if u fill it so much I cant get my own rubbish in I'll just pop mine in another neighbors bin! Ive always just seen bins as council property, in my old street we just used to all use each others if needed..rather that than all over the road or fly tipping..as long as its disposed of properly who cares...but ive never had bin problems..I think ppl who care have probably been bin bitten in the past! I wouldnt do it now that ive read this. .I had no idea their was a bin etiquette..maybe my last neighbors secretly hated me n I had no idea!
