Not wishing to dampen your thread but, if I may, an example of the kindness of binmen.
When I moved to my last UK house I was surprised to hear them at around 4am or just after. I found out that a few years before a lorry had run over and killed the toddler across the road. A sheer accident but the binmen decided they would collect from our close very early so the parents didn't see the lorry every week.
