Same here in Oregon. My bins are old (at least 16 years) and same as when I moved in.

I would think that is the truck was too strong, that could be adjusted. Or if city bought weak bins, they could be replaced by proper ones.

Here is the truck in action. I get only a couple years before the lid starts fragmenting at the corners and sometimes breaks at the hinge.

That looks like the standard bin and the claw is similar. But trucks here are gentler.

My guess is that your city designed trucks for speed at expense of destroying cans.

Australian checking in. Our wheelie bin lids cark it every decade or two, but I'd attribute that to sun exposure degrading them. The mechanical impact is just what finishes the job.

No they last about 2 or 3 years in my experience, depending on how lucky you get with them. Everyone's bin is at least somewhat damaged. A few are missing the top entirely. I've replaced a bad bin once, free service from the city, but the replacement is already starting to crack on the corners where it slaps down onto the tips of the metal claw holding the bin. It is quite violent how it slaps the lid. Here is a video of the units they use:

So no one cares that the trucks are clearly overpowered for the job and destroying bins every 2-3 years when other countries(maybe even other places in the US too?) have identical bins lasting 2 decades without any problem, even when using trucks that automatically dump the contents? Do you pay for replacement bins as residents, or does the city provide them? Either way, seems incredibly wasteful for something that is absolutely a solved problem.
