Bin care
What not to put in a rental bin
The short list of things that stay out of a rental bin — and why it keeps your costs down.
Almost anything is fine. This short list isn't.
Bins get cleaned between every rental, so a bit of dust is expected. Contamination isn't.
The list is short and mostly common sense.
- Open liquids, paint or anything that can leak
- Hazardous, flammable or corrosive materials
- Wet or damp items that will sit for days
- Food waste, anything perishable, anything alive
- Loads heavy enough that you can't lift the bin yourself
Everything else — books, clothes, kitchenware, toys, files — is exactly what these are built for.
