IIRC, in America items placed near bins, used for regular refuse pick up fit into the legal category of "abandoned" property, and are thus pretty much fair game...or are treated as such for all practical purposes...

Where I live that seems to be the case...no one cares...

That is, unless local (city) codes legislate differently...
