A video of how Lake County, FL trash trucks mangle trash cans or is defective plastic the culprit?

Over the past 2-3 months, Lake County, FL contracted trash trucks with the arms have destroyed my large (not recycled) trash can and I need a new one.  The truck driver said to ask Lake County for a new "can". Although some of the drivers really bang the trash can around, I think the REAL problem is that defective plastic used in the can becomes brittle in the Florida heat just like many other plastic items kept outside like windex bottles, plastic storage bins, etc.

Here is a picture and a video ( of what your trucks have done to this trash can where defective plastic may have contributed to the problem). Also notice that the lid "hinges" have to be restrained with THREE plastic ties on each plastic hinge because one broke completely apart.  Again, cheap plastic in my viewpoint and this may be a manufacturer's defect issue.
