It's actually very simple, it has to do with the fact that these are plastic zip ties, the colder weather makes plastic more prone to breaking, and these trash guys love to toss them around .

I ended up buying a pack of zip ties to have on hand.

Resident of Waltham here lurking from a suggestion and this is the problem. What are you guys doing with zip tied lids? I couldn’t get the lid to come off my city issued recycling bin if I tried. The bin itself is RFID tagged. It’s your city who did you dirty on a bad contract. Collaborate with collections and go get ye better bins!!
