You should try the "fancy" parts of London. Not allowed to leave bins

Ah but bags is quicker to deal with than wheelie bins. One cannot
have those labourers bringing down the tone can one.

Couple of chaps can lob a great pile of bags into the back of the
wagon in the time it takes the same chaps to retrieve and hook on a
couple of bins, wait while the machine hoists it up, turns it over,
shakes it, lowers it down and the chap unhooks it. That's only two
bins (two households), the heap of bags could well be all the waste
from half a dozen households or more...
