Not all bins are owned by the council; some councils 'give' them to residents who then have to pay for replacements in the event of loss or damage.

And bins are not identical. Some get washed out weekly and given a spray of Bin-Fresh. Others have six-month-old sludge and bloodstains accumulating at the bottom.

Also, our bins we all panelled with the address.

They sometimes put stickers on bins and don't collect them if the
wrong stuff is in them. (And presumably record a black mark
against you)
