Shocking CCTV footage shows binmen being assaulted by furious locals - for refusing to take their extra rubbish.

The clips reveal how bin collectors are facing a surge in physical violence from hacked-off homeowners who are angry with their waste disposal service.

In one worrying video, a raging resident can be seen tussling with a binman as he tries to force a massive cardboard box into their wagon.

An angry van driver was also caught on camera narrowly missing a workman during his rounds - by driving across a pavement to avoid a bin lorry.
