Now dustmen won't take your rubbish away if wheelie bin is too heavy to pull with two fingers | Mail Online

Now dustmen won't take your rubbish away if wheelie bin is too heavy to pull with two fingers Mail Online: "Binmen have put two fingers up to common sense by issuing an astonishing warning to council-tax payers.
'If we can't pull your wheelie bin using just two fingers it is too heavy - and won't be emptied.'
Bins that need three or more fingers, they claim, constitute a health and safety risk as they could fall from the lorry while being emptied.
The edict from binmen is the latest salvo in a continuing battle between householders and bureaucracy."
