My neighbour (an artist) has marked his number on the wheelie bin in COPPERPLATE font with lots of swirls.

Just use a permanent marker like we did.

Fine for a green bin but it wont show on a black bin. :rotfl:

I can tell mine a mile off as our bin men threw it along the ground last year so it's got big scratches down it!

I just used the remnant of a matchpot/colour sampler on mine. Supposed to be for interior so is water based so I expected it'd wash off in time. 4 years on, still as good as new...

use any paint but a good tip is to write it on the inside of the lid that way if it is left out all day the burglars will not know you are out or if you are in the neighbors will not know you are being lazy by not bringing it in.
