Why would someone steal a bloody bin?

[Bristol spark]

I put my Black bin (full or smelly trash) out Friday Morning for collection.

I didn't come home Friday, however when i came home Saturday midday the bin was gone.

I have asked my direct neighbours if they accidentally brought in two bins as its a shared driveway, but nope.

So i can only guess that someone has actually stolen my smelly bin?..........


I live on a relatively upper market new build estate, most of my neighbours have Audi's or BMW's etc so its not exactly a council estate.


Why on earth would someone do this? what are they going to do with it?


Im guessing the council will charge me a fortune for another?


Has anyone else had this?


Is it worth trying to bodge a GPS tracker onto the new one?

Well i just tried calling the Council, but it appears the lazy buggers have gone home!!

Will have to try again tomorrow!

Well I'm amazed, just called South Gloucestershire council.

A new bin will be delivered in next few days, completely free of charge!

Well after a rather long "couple of days" !!!

I came home today, and a brand new bin was on my drive

So i immediatly made my marker on it, unfortunatly i only had
Crinkle Plus rocker cover paint in the garage, So will be interesting to
See what it looks like when dried!
