Choosing The Best Trash Container
When trying to maintain your home’s health, cleanliness, and safety, choosing the best trash container is a crucial step to take. Making sure your employees and customers have trash cans easily at their disposal is vital because it will help ensure that trash and recyclables go in the proper containers. Nothing looks more unappealing than an overflowing trash container, and it can make your workplace look unsafe, sloppy, and unhealthy.
This is the reason businesses, and homes need not just the proper size of trash can, but also the right number of each container type that are placed in a manner that minimizes the time it takes to reach them. Here is how you should choose the best trash container for your home or business.
Location, Volume, And Compatibility
There are trash cans for outside, kitchens, and offices, among other places. When you pick where to put your trash container, you want to consider how much trash is piling up in given areas. The more garbage that gathers in a given space, the more ideal it will be for you to place a trash container in that spot. Larger trash cans are better when you have massive amounts of trash. Larger bins usually have wheels that make it easier to move when they are full. Make sure your trash container abides by the guidelines set by your garbage hauler with regards to the compatibility for automated or manual lifting.
Seal The Deal
One of the mains purposes of a trash container is to keep insects away and reduce odors. In places where this is a problem, pick a trash container with a covering system. Having a lid on lighter trash like scrap paper keeps it from blowing out of the bin due to high winds and breezes caused by vehicles that are passing by your house.
Ease Of Handling
Larger trash cans are easier to handle when they are equipped with handles, dollies, or wheels. The top of the trash container is also vital. You have choices such as removable tops, vented tops, and tops that stay up. You can pick from rectangular or circular designs, but rectangular options offer more storage efficiency for multiple trash bins if necessary.
Recycling Bins And Trash Cans Are Different
Everyone knows blue bins are for recycling, so don’t use blue bins for trash. Something many people do is place a trash container and a recycling bin in the same place so that people can separate their recyclables from their waste before putting them in the proper containers. Coordinating where blue bins and trash bins go helps to promote recycling.
