Why bother getting your wheelie bin cleaned?

A wheelie bin is one of the dirtiest things at a house, and most never get cleaned. Every load leaves residue soaked into the plastic, and that residue is what breeds the smell, the flies and the maggots, especially in summer.

The smell is the obvious one. Rotting food, nappies and pet waste leave an odour that no amount of airing out shifts, because it is not on the surface, it is in the residue. A proper sanitise and deodorise kills the bacteria and neutralises the smell at the source.

Maggots and flies are the next problem. Flies lay eggs in any food residue, and in warm weather those become maggots within a day or two. A clean, sanitised bin gives them nothing to breed in, which is the real fix rather than fly spray.

Then there is hygiene. Bins harbour bacteria like E. coli and salmonella from food and animal waste, and that is not something you want near the back door, the kids or the pets. A commercial-grade sanitise deals with it properly.

Doing it yourself is possible but grim. Tipping a bin on its side, scrubbing inside it and then dealing with the filthy water is a job most people put off forever, and hosing it onto the driveway sends that waste straight into the stormwater. A mobile cleaner does it properly and captures the water.
