Product Information
Full details
The Wham Recycle It 50 Litre Bin is designed for homeowners and office managers who need a reliable, dedicated solution for organizing recyclable materials. Its primary strength lies in its durable construction and secure lid system that keeps recyclables contained and out of sight. While it is excellent for standard sorting, the single-compartment design means you will need multiple units if you intend to separate different types of recyclables like plastic, paper, and glass within the same footprint.

FAQs
Is the bin suitable for outdoor use?
This bin is designed primarily for indoor use. While durable, prolonged exposure to harsh weather and direct sunlight may affect the longevity of the plastic.
What is the total capacity?
The bin has a 50-litre capacity, making it suitable for large quantities of recyclable waste.
Does it require a plastic liner?
You can use the bin with or without a liner. Using a liner can help keep the bin cleaner, especially if you are disposing of items that may have food residue.
Can I remove the lid?
The lid is designed to remain attached for convenience; removing it may damage the hinge mechanism.
Is the material recyclable?
Yes, the plastic construction is generally recyclable at the end of the product's life cycle; please check your local council guidelines.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not flip or close correctly
Check the hinge area for debris or obstructions and ensure the bin is on a level surface.
Surface marks or scuffs
Use a non-abrasive soft cloth with mild detergent to gently buff out superficial surface marks.
Residual odors in the bin
Wash the interior with a mixture of water and vinegar, then dry thoroughly before placing a new bag inside.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Wham Recycle It Bin is straightforward; it arrives ready to use with the lid pre-attached. To maintain the life of your bin, wipe the interior and exterior with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution as needed to prevent the buildup of residue from beverage containers. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could scratch or degrade the plastic surface. While the bin is designed for indoor use, if placed in a garage or shed, ensure it is kept away from direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent plastic brittleness. The bin is compatible with standard waste bags, though the interior rim is designed to support the shape of the container even if used without a liner.
