    5e is a good price, i have always cleaned my bins… something i got from my mother….. i look at my neighbours bins and they are manky and smelly, the poor bin men has to touch these so try to keep clean….

    I nearly faint when i see people put things into bins without bags… ie loose rubbish!!!

    I have a clean bin fettish, but have to admit with the snow and all they havent been done in week….
    i have it down to a fine art, when cleaning if you open the lid then lie the bin down lid side, the lid props the bin up and much easier to clean, i use hte brush and the jeyes fluid water to wash the outside too and then hose down…… but not too much as i like the pine to stay on the bin…
    A man comes around her with a van and has pressure washers on the back for doing bins

    i’ve done it myself too, once and never again! i got all the gunk out alright, but in the process got some of the spray off the powerhose on me 😥 😥 👿 so never ever again!

    i’ll have a chat to him tomorrow and see what he can do for my 3 bins 🙂 sure atleast he’s trying to earn a living in this hard times and it’s not expensive so we’ll give it a go!!!

    My dad is the best I’ve come across at this. He half fills(or less) the bin with water & has a self-made ‘gadget’ for scrubbing it. Now don’t laugh coz it is amazingly effective!! It is a toilet brush attached to the wooden handle of a sweeping brush. Basically, he scrubs it like you’d do a large toilet!!

    I admire your man’s initiative in setting up a business like this – I just hope by the time all these damn tax cuts have revealed themselves that we can afford to reward his work ethic!

    Would he do just a once off?
    Don’t need/want my bins cleaned every month.
    Anyway I just changed bin provider so I have new clean bins, for now.
    what is the website to pay online?

    We have a garbage disposal/insinkerator so don’t really use the compost bin…I’d imagine that thing can get pretty gross…

    But the idea of a clean garbage can still is such an oxymoron to me 😆

    uuuhhh gross people put rubbish in without in bags that’s gross….no we don’t do that but the nappies and dog dirt in nappy bags evetually over the week smell….so a nice clean bin would be great…

    i clean the handles alright….but haven’t got to cleaning the inside bad enough keeping the house in one piece happy to get someone to clean my bin
