Litter bins are still disappearing (being stolen) from Oscott streets at an alarming rate.
As I see it the main problem is thieves steeling them for the metal linings.
I am continually trying to get bins replaced in Oscott and have asked Council Chiefs to consider using none metal (plastic bins.) where it is appropriate. Using other heavier bins like the one in the picture above is another alternative that can be used in some locations.
However I would urge residents to keep a look out for thieves who are steeling "our litter bins" and to report anything suspicion to the Police. If you see a thieves van registration no for example take a note of it.
