Request
Please inform me how many wheelie bins have been reported lost or stolen to your council in the last three years with a breakdown of how many per year and per month. For example, how many were reported lost or stolen in January 2020, February 2020 and onwards. If this data is not stored month-by-month, please just send it to me by year.
Can you please also tell me how much revenue Herefordshire Council has accumulated from charging people who have had to replace their wheelie bin in the last three years - with a breakdown over the years, so in 2020, in 2021 and in 2022 so far.

Herefordshire council does not charge for the replacement of lost / stolen bins so the revenue accumulated for each year is zero.
