Bin Man's Secret to Cleaner Wheelie Bins

0:00It's March 26th. You're listening to Lester News today, AI-powered local news. I'm Corey with The Story. A Binman popular on TikTok has a simple tip to keep Wheely Bin's cleaner and free from maggots and foxes. He recommends using 300-liter liners inside standard 180-liter bins, which fit comfortably and make clean of easy. These larger bags also work in 240-liter bins, though he skips them for recycling to ensure proper collection. These homes do not have the bigger, too-hainy, liter sizes, but larger liners are available if needed. Dirty bins breed bacteria like E. coli and salmonella, worse than a toilet seat, thanks to food waste, heat, and moisture. They attract flies and foxes, creating smells and infestations, especially between collections. The liners solve this by containing mess, so bins stay fresh and pest-free. For deeper cleans without a hose, lay the bin on its side, scrub with a stiff brush and use hot water to flush out residue.
