After collection why do binmen not return the bin to the driveway, instead of dumping them in the middle of the pavement?

We can be fined for fly tipping if we leave stuff on the pavement outside our own houses, so why is it ok for refuse collectors to abandon emptied bins in the middle of the pavement?
