Of course you might consider tactile marking your bins. Say a few
holes in the wheelie bin side flange of the lid to correspond to the
colour. I have done this for obvious reasons four bins 1 to four
holes. Also acts as a way to know if its your bin or somebody elses.
I'm sure there are other tactile solutions short self tapping screws
instead of holes, for example.
I did test cable ties on the hinges but these were broken of by the
wheelie
bin Lorry when it grabbed and emptied them.

Good idea Brian - but I also want to ensure that the bogey man isn't
lurking there to jump out on me!

After many years I haven't got into the habit of orienting the bins in any
particular way.
