    I cleaned my bin out for the first time yesterday and I'd be happy to pay someone to do it - I certainly never want to do it again.

    I had no idea before reading this thread that such businesses already exist. I shall find one and sign up!

    How would you approach those who use communal dumpsters, approach flat occupants themselves and do it off the back of their consent? Or go through the property management company?

    Interestingly, OP started a thread in Feb 2016 about setting up a and running a car parking business, but never returned to the thread.

    I own a successful bin cleaning biz

    Over 2000 customers signed up, we charge £4 a bin per month.

    Alot of perseverance has been needed to get it there though, definitely not for the work shy!

    And you can deny it all you like, people DO need there bins cleaned, we have seen it all :D !

    Hi there, hiya just wondering did u start your business up . And get any information . As my husband is on about doing it . 🙂


    I'm wanting to start a wheelie bin cleaning business and wondering if there is anyone out there who is currently in this field and can provide me with information on their equipment? I have been quoted almost 10k for a hydraulic operated trailer system which obviously is a massive outlay for a relatively simple operation. I know there is waste management laws and licenses which need to be adhered to and i am clued up on this... I'm really only looking for information on equipment and costs. If I could have any information on expected annual turnover and net profit I'd be grateful.

    Kind regards

    The OP has not logged in since 2017 so is unlikely to see your post.

    I think I'll close this thread before people get confused and start responding to a 2 year old question.
