Vermin When your wheelie bin becomes full all too often excess bags of rubbish are placed at the side of the bin with the bin lid propped open on its overflowing contents. This can arise to various problems. Wild animals such as rats, foxes and squirrels find this an irresistible treat, they will happily forage through your refuse spreading the content all around. With all the bags neatly compacted into the bin and the lid closed your wheelie bin will happily fight off these unwanted scavengers and you won't be left with torn bags the bin men could not take. | | The Proposed Bin Tax The government have proposed to raise a tax on the amount of bin bags used by each household. This could be as much as £1 per additional bag not contain within your wheelie bin. By compacting your refuse into your wheelie bin with Trashbasher you could save hundreds of pounds per year. | | Recycling If you have a recycling wheelie bin as many people do the Trashbasher is very effective at crushing plastic bottles and cardboard boxes allowing you to fit more reusable material in the bin. | | Unwanted Odours Making sure the bin lid is complete shut win keep unwanted smells at bay. | Wind and Rain
With your bin lid partially raised it is very easy for the wind to blow the lid fully open. Once this happens the wind will start to blow any loose rubbish from the bin and distribute it around the street. Rain will also start to fill the bin with water making it very heavy and difficult to manoeuvre.
