What happens if some "youths" decide to attack your bin and destroy the chip?
They will probably make you responsible for any damage and liable for any repair costs if they find a fault on their regular checks (they will need to employ another public service worker for this task of course).Targarama said:

They will probably make you responsible for any damage and liable for any repair costs if they find a fault on their regular checks (they will need to employ another public service manager and assistant manager and supervisor in charge and deputy supervisor and head of checking and assistant head of checking and 10 bin checking officers per 10,000 households and a maintainance manager and a team of 10 maintainance staff and 5 admin support workers for maintainance and checking and a new payroll clerk to cover the extra staff and a pay rise for the director who now has more staff and a new fleet of vehicles and lots of health and safety training and equipment for this task of course).We've got two wheelie bins, a throw away and a recycle. They're mine, I remember buying them from the council supplier when we moved in. If the council want to rent a space for a microchip in my property then I'm sure we can come to some financial arrangement. Somewhere in the region of £1300 pa would probably cover it.

I paid £14 for our grey rubbish wheelie bin 10 years ago (had no choice if I wanted my rubbish collected). The Council has just kindly delivered a green wheelie bin for free and put us on fortnightly collections. I will never use the green bin as we have woodland for the garden refuse and a kitchen sink waste disposal for the majority of the food waste. Any extra food waste goes in the normal bin - I'm not getting into slop buckets and the like.There was a test a few years ago by some council in Norfolk that either restricted or charged for more than what they saw fit to collect, I don't remember the exact details. What I do remember is it being reported that the scheme had been abandoned due to the MASSIVE increse in fly tipping.
However, with the eyes in the sky controlled by the police farce etc that will be harder. Face it, the sheeple have been bought off with iphones and huge TV sets, they don't care.

Are these bins the German style ones? The ones no one can fill up for you once you've locked them and are being emptied from the bottom by special trucks (which would have to have been purchased of course 
)
I expect my council tax bill to significantly go down as a result of this pay-as-you-dump scheme.

I wonder if these bins employ the same technology as the chips in biometric passports
Apparently councils will soon get a black mark from the Audit Commission or somesuch if they continue to operate weekly collections. This will save:
- the planet
- masses of council tax which will be spent on more fat cats and peaked cap types to make sure we don't leave the lid open by even a millimetre.
'Fly tipping? That's another budget - not our problem guv.'

FFS it is just an ID tag that tell the council who the bin belongs to that can be read by the bin lorry. The samething could be done by stencilling the owner name or ID on the bin and getting the bin man to type it into a keypad. -Would there be a big fuss over that? The chip just automates the process make the bin run quicker and cheaper.
What the worry should be, is the fact thant the bins are being weighed by the bin lorry. The Chip tag is just a way of making the process of weighing and logging the waste weight more efficient.
The issue is not the tags, it is the potential pay per weigh refuse system.

Indeed. Surely they know that this will just cause much more fly tipping?What they will do is put everyone onto bi-weekly collections, and make it seem like they're doing you a favour by not charging you per bin.
