Wheely bin cleaning.
«

September 08, 2008, 09:38:04 pm »
Can anyone enlighten me on the regulations for cleaning these bins weather small or large ones?
I have been asked to do a few for a sheltered acomodation unit alongside the exteria cleaning of the building which I do.
Is a preasure washer ok or do you need to use chemicals?
Is there a rule of thumb on pricing these bins?
Thanks for any replies in advance.

Hi Nick.
West Sussex.
I have a meeting with the manager on Thursday.
My quote will be put in after. From what I gather their are around 25 domestic wheely bins.
They have a contractors code of practice. H & S and all the legal requirements etc.
The residents are not sure if they should be done 1/4ly or monthly. What do you quote for each?
I have not got a clue on price or how long it should take.
Some guys around us just use a hose a bit of disinfectant and a brush??
Any advise would be appreciated.

Is your price monthly? If so what would you charge for 1/4.

It's a van or trailer where you can carry the water to the bins, clean them in the trailer then take the dirty water away
I charge per bin

Found a web site for the wheely bin cleaner.
Not going to be cost efective for 25 bins.
Might just use a pressure washer instead.
Have you one of these bits of gear. if you are into that business I can see it can save time and earn you more.
I never would have thought there was such a market.

you have to get rid of the waste water , you can not just wash them out on the floor.
Why not sub contract it out to the local bin cleaning company

Might have to do that, however I do have a wast tank.
Do you do bins full time or as an add on to your business?
Thanks for the imput. It has been very interesting.
