Same in our council the only wheelie bin collection we acctually have is for green waste on a set lorry, not all of our lorries have bin lifts and we are a bag collection counci.
Bag work is easier than bin work but what makes it so stupid is if you have a full wheelie bin route then they should make 100% sure that the lorry is capible of doing the work its silly but its not the residents fault its the neglegence of the council they should have sent a lorry with a bin lift out so any claim should be made against the council for not supplying the proper equipment.
Also as a rule here on my council we will not collect wheelie bins unless the person is disabled, if its in a bin we will not get it out its left regardless.
