According to the Mail the leaflets use images with green ticks and red crosses to describe the correct angle for wheelie bins to be placed before they are collected by binmen. The flyers have been sent out in the Hillfields and Foleshill areas.
It seems that the council is worried that binmen would injure themselves if the bins face the "wrong" direction.
City resident Dave Evans was quoted:
"If this is a health and safety issue why has it only been raised now and, if so, is it not a health and safety issue to residents?"Quite!

I wonder how a modern day binman would get on when I was growing up in the 1950s and 1960s; our binmen would CARRY two metal bins, often with fire ash in them, from the back of our house to the dustcart, they would then return the bin from where they got it and then replace the lid......The coalmen carried 1CWT sacks, on their shoulders and put them into our coal bunker.....Eeeee, blokes today don't know they're born.
