FAQs

What material is the dustbin storage made from?

The storage units are crafted from robust 50 x 50 mm timber framing made from FSC® certified sustainable, pressure-treated timber.

Does it come assembled?

No, the dustbin storage units arrive flat-packed and require self-assembly. Instructions and fittings are included.

How many dustbins can a single unit hold?

A single unit is designed to discreetly store one standard wheelie dustbin.

What are the warranty details?

The product comes with a 12-month warranty.

Can these units be painted or stained?

Yes, while the timber is pressure-treated, you can apply a suitable outdoor wood sealant or stain to further protect it and customize its appearance.

What are the packed dimensions for shipping?

Packed dimensions vary by size: Single (0.4m x 1.2m x 0.8m), Double (0.5m x 1.2m x 0.8m), Triple (0.7m x 1.2m x 0.8m). They are delivered on a pallet.

Will this unit keep animals completely out?

The unit is designed to conceal bins and deter animals by preventing access to the waste. However, complete exclusion may depend on the specific animal and the sealing of the unit.

Troubleshooting

Unit does not seem stable after assembly.

Ensure all screws and fittings are tightened securely. Check that the unit is placed on a level surface.

Door or lid mechanism is stiff.

Check for any obstructions in the hinges or moving parts. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary.

Water pooling inside the unit after rain.

Verify that the unit is not positioned in an area prone to flooding and that there are no gaps allowing significant water ingress. Ensure the ground slopes away from the unit.

Appearance is fading after a season.

This is normal for wood exposed to sunlight. For improved aesthetics, consider applying a wood sealant or stain suitable for outdoor use.

Care:

To maintain the longevity and appearance of your wooden dustbin storage, periodic cleaning and care are recommended.

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Treatment (Optional): While the timber is pressure-treated, applying a suitable wood sealant or stain annually can further enhance its protection against the elements and maintain its colour.
  3. Inspection: Regularly check for any signs of wear and tear, particularly around joints, and address them promptly.
