Many residential communities now require homeowners to recycle all their waste and to segregate everything carefully before they place it by the side of the road. In this case, these homeowners may have to juggle two or three different types of wheelie bins, each colour-coded and designed to do its own job to help the environment. Certainly, this is much better than the old method of placing plastic bags by the side of the street, but these bins do come with their own set of problems which may need to be addressed. At the top of that list is cleanliness, and if you're beginning to turn your nose up at a growing and unsightly smell, what do you need to do about it?
Hold Your Nose
In the height of the summer, the temperature inside your fully packed wheelie bin can rise to an extreme whenever it is placed by the side of the road to await collection. This is not necessarily a disaster as long as the bin itself is carefully packed, but accidents do happen and people are often in a rush, so food waste and other rubbish may present an issue. When these leftovers start to pollute the bottom of the bin or leave traces alongside the interior walls, bacteria will begin to accumulate. This situation will get progressively worse as time goes by, until the interior of the bin leaves a great deal to be desired.
DIY Solution
In this case, you may decide to take action on your own and try to clean everything out with a garden hose and some household cleaner. This can be an unpleasant and a difficult job at the best of times and may not be very efficient. Furthermore, the waste produced by this work could be toxic, and you may run into issues from an environmental perspective if you try to flush it all into the sewer.
Contractors to the Rescue
Instead, you should get in touch with a wheelie bin cleaning contractor in your neighbourhood and ask them to help you out. They will know how to do this with great efficiency and, crucially, will use biodegradable or 'green' friendly products as they do. When they finish, they will have helped to transform even the dirtiest bin and will certainly get rid of bacteria and that unholy smell so that you can roll those bins out to the kerb without a sense of guilt!
