Hi,
we were looking for storage for our bins and we found the below!

Can we find anything like this in the UK? They don't deliver to here
I am after the ones with the aluminum on top to plant things.
Any help really appreciated! Been trawling the net for ages already.
Regards,
Egon

I wonder how hard they would be to make? Might get OH on the case!0

Not sure how hard they are to make. :think:
Both OH and myself are not very good in DIY. :shhh:
We are really after the ones with the alu top to put plants in. :think:
Might have to sign up for some courses to get what I want?I wish Germany had a website like moneysavingexpert!0 -
Don't know of anything similar over here - the only thing I can suggest is that some of the courier firms like DHL will import things for you - i.e. reverse delivery where you arrange it rather than the supplier. However at 375 Euros they aren't cheap before you start!Adventure before Dementia!0

If you're after the ones with the planters on top, you'll either have to build them 18 inches higher than the bins themselves, or pull the bins out every time you want to put something in them.
I imagine that would get annoying pretty quickly. And at 18 inches to 2 foot higher than the bins themselves, I hope you're fairly tall to water the plants!0 -
My hubby made a recycling box storage unit/holder thing out of some old single bed slats lol Looks great and holds 4 recycling boxes (2 on bottom, 2 of the top) and was painted cream with some old garden shades paint. It took him an afternoon to do but he said it was very easy. I am thinking of asking him to do a similar one out of some old pallets for the 2 wheelie bins
He said it was very easy!

im sorry but buying that product to hide recycle bins is like taking your range rover to the bottle bank.
far better to make one. and a lot cheaper to boot!
you dont have to use ally/steel for the top, plywood can do it too.Get some gorm.0 -
I'm sure I saw something similar in Costco last summer. Not quite as nice looking but similar wooden clad design.MFW: Nov 2008 £156k, Jun 2015 £129k, Jun 2017 £114k.0

Have you thought about getting a local carpenter to give you some quotes for something similar?import this0
