Bin Cleaning in Ireland
Wheelie bins get properly unpleasant in summer — the residue at the bottom does not empty with the rubbish, and in warm weather that is what breeds maggots and the smell that carries across a garden. Cleaning is done with a high-pressure jet inside the bin, and the dirty water is collected rather than run into the drain.

Frequently asked questions
- When should the bin be cleaned?
- On or just after collection day, while it is empty. Booking it for any other day usually means it cannot be done properly.
- Why not just hose it out myself?
- You can, but the residue that causes the smell is baked onto the base and needs pressure. The bigger issue is the waste water — hosing a bin into a surface drain puts organic waste straight into the storm system.
- How often is worth it?
- Monthly through summer for an organic bin, quarterly for general waste. Through winter most people stop entirely.
