I hate wheely bins with a passion. They take up pavement space, they are ugly and they often get stolen, so they are expensive.

It does make a lot more sense really. I mean, single people working full time get the same size of bin (as standard) as a family of 5... So the family's bin is overflowing while the other one only has one or two small bags at the bottom. It's stupid. A larger communal thing makes much more sense.
