    It can be arranged with your bin company. They take the bin away, clean it and bring it back.

    I am currently setting up a wheelie bin cleaning service for domestic and commercial bin cleaning, where we will come after your bin is collected, clean and disinfect your bin.
    Do you think €4 for one bin and €10 for all three is reasonable for a once off clean with the option for a monthly two monthly service at a better rate?

    Any thoughts?

    how necessary is it to clean a wheelie bin though? We've had the same bins for around 2 years, and whilst I wouldn't want to live in them, I haven't had to don a radiation suit to open the lid yet...

    James T - hurry up and start!!! :) Having alot of nappies and their contents would mean by now I nearly need a pole to open my bin!!! Think that amount sounds good, I would probably only get them done once a month but will definitely use your service if and when it starts up.

    Very necessary. As we live in a mid terrace it isnt easy to hose the bin down, the bin also lives very close to our front door. After a couple of years the bin is starting to smell. We have tried all kinds of bin air freshners and powders to hide/mask any smells.

    We would definatly sign up for bin cleaning however i am not sure how often we would need it doing after the first clean. I can only see it needing doing once every couple of months.

    fair point - ours are a good distance from the door.

    I would love if this service was available, have been promising myself that I will clean the bin every week for i dont know how long. Do you have a time frame for starting this service please?

    Hey guys thanks for your view, in the process of setting up and getting equipment and products required approved, a lot of things (and costs) required I never thought of until I researched it.

    How would €5 for once off bin clean, €12 for all three once off clean and €65 for all three cleaned 6 times a year which is only €3.61 per bin per clean.

    Hope to be up and running by end of nov!

    It would be brilliant to have a service like that. My wheelie bins are next to the front door and are in desperate need of washing. The stench was horrendous during the summer. I was doing all sorts to mask the smell.

    Thanks James T :)
