Perth and Kinross Council has employed the services of a company based 448 miles away from Perth to deliver its bins.
Jett Distribution in Norfolk however says it is the only company doing this in the UK and delivers and collects over 2.5 million products every year in the UK and Europe. A spokesperson for the Great Yarmouth-based company told the Local Democracy Reporting Service: "We are the only company doing this line of work throughout the UK and we distribute through UK/Ireland and sometimes Germany.
Jett has done a lot of work in Scotland recently for other local authorities including both Stirling and Clackmannanshire. But the company insists its workers give back and "live like a local" whilst in the local authority area doing the physically demanding job.
