If you’re looking for outdoor litter and dog waste bins, Earth Anchors has a wide variety of options to choose from. Bins are vital for keeping the outside areas of school playgrounds, parks, community spaces, and restaurants or cafes safer and cleaner. In this product spotlight, we’ll take a closer look at some of the benefits of outdoor litter and dog waste bins and highlight a few of the top options available from Earth Anchors.
Options for Outdoor Litter Bins and Dog Waste Bins
At Earth Anchors, you’ll find a wide variety of outdoor litter and dog waste bins to check out. One of our top picks is the Dual Sentinel , which is a great option for schools, parks, and other outdoor spaces. This bin is a steel cage bin with removable steel liners, so it’s a heavy-duty litter bin. Made from 5mm sheet steel with a pyramid roof, the Dual Sentinel can be hot-dipped galvanised for longevity or even just for aesthetic purposes.
Another popular option is the Beau Litter Bin , which is our small steel-caged litter bin. This 42Ltr steel cage bin comes with a removable steel liner, and you can have it painted in your choice of bright colours. The Beau Litter Bin is also suitable for galvanising, which gives it a no-fuss look and a life expectancy of 25 years. The result is a litter bin that’s perfect for schools and playgrounds.
Introducing the Dual HGN
One of our most popular outdoor litter bins, the Dual HGN features a unique design that allows you to use it as either a litter bin or a dog waste bin — or both! You can choose how you prefer to have it mounted too, either with an anchor post, bolt-down post, or concrete-in post. There’s also the option to have the Dual HGN come with a pedal or without, so it’s highly customisable. Choose from 45 or 66Ltr steel bins, with the signage of your choice on each separate bin.
The Dual HGN bin has a large capacity and features a removable liner for easy cleaning and maintenance — and let’s face it, being easy to clean is a big advantage. Nobody wants to spend too much time cleaning out dog waste bins or litter bins.
One of the key features of the Dual HGN is its versatility. The bin has a dual-sided design, with one side labelled ‘Litter’ and the other side labelled ‘Dog Waste’. This allows you to use the bin for either purpose. The bin also has a built-in bag dispenser, so if you do decide to designate one of the bins solely for dog waste, it’s easy to provide bags for dog waste and keep your community space clean and hygienic.
Another advantage of the Dual HGN is its durability. The bin itself is made from recycled plastic, which is a strong and weather-resistant material. This means that it can cope easily with daily use and withstand exposure to whatever the weather throws at it.
Overall, the Dual HGN is a great option for schools, parks, and other outdoor spaces that are looking for a versatile and durable litter and dog waste bin. Its dual-sided design and built-in bag dispenser make it a convenient and hygienic choice for managing litter and dog waste in your community space. Whether you’re looking for just a litter bin, a dog waste bin, or both, the Dual HGN is a popular choice for many reasons.
Meet the Sentinel
In addition to the Dual HGN, Earth Anchors also offers the Sentinel, which is an impressive steel bin that can be used for a variety of purposes. The Sentinel is made from thick high-quality steel, which makes it a strong and vandal-resistant option compared to traditional wooden or plastic bins. The bin is available in a range of colours to match your school’s branding or restaurant theme and features a unique design.
The Sentinel has a 110Ltr capacity liner, which means plenty of space for collecting and disposing of litter, and the liner is easy to remove, which makes it easy to empty. The compact design of the Sentinel, with dimensions of 72cm high and 50cm wide, makes it a great size for smaller parks or for outdoor spaces in a park or hotel. It also has optional ground fixings, including a Rootfast anchored base, bolt-down fixings kit, or Fastdek, which allows you to securely attach the bin to the ground.
Overall, the Sentinel is a great option for schools, parks, and other outdoor spaces that are looking for a versatile and durable steel bin. Its four-sided design, large liner capacity, and optional ground fixings make it a convenient and hygienic choice for managing litter and recycling in your community space. When you’re looking for a litter bin, the Sentinel is a great option.
The Benefits of Outdoor Litter Bins and Dog Waste Bins
For restaurant owners, park managers, and school designers, finding the right type of bin to encourage proper waste disposal is an important part of keeping their premises clean. Not only do outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins help keep the area neat and tidy, but they also provide a range of other benefits. Let’s take a look at some of the many benefits that can be gained from having outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins on your premises.
Encourages Proper Waste Disposal
By providing outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins in public areas, you are encouraging people to properly dispose of their rubbish instead of leaving it on the ground or throwing it off the side of the path. This not only helps keep those public areas clean but can also keep local wildlife safer.
Prevents Pollution
Outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins stop discarded rubbish from entering rivers and lakes, where it can cause pollution that affects both plant life and wildlife. Bins also prevent any rubbish from blowing away into nearby neighbourhoods, which can be a major source of air pollution.
Reduces Risk of Fire
Any litter left outdoors can easily catch fire, which could spread to nearby buildings or trees, and cause significant damage or even risk human lives if not contained quickly enough. Having proper outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins (especially those with fireproof lids) will reduce the risk of this happening significantly as it prevents combustible material from accumulating in large piles near buildings or trees that are at risk from fire damage.
Makes Areas More Attractive
Nobody wants to spend time in a dirty park, cafe, or playground, so having properly maintained outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins is essential for making these areas attractive places for people to visit. Cleaner outdoor spaces can help bring more visitors to your area, which could be beneficial for businesses located nearby as well as for local tourism in general.
Saves on Cleaning Costs
Outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins allow you to save money on cleaning costs by reducing the amount of litter that needs to be picked up manually. This means more money saved on wage costs, equipment maintenance, and even fuel costs.
Discourages Litterers
Having dedicated outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins will discourage people who think it’s acceptable to throw their litter on the ground or leave their dog mess on the path just because there are no visible receptacles available. By providing these bins, litterers will think twice before dumping their litter on the ground.
Keeps Pests Away
Properly installed outdoor litter bins also help to keep pests away from areas where people congregate or dine outdoors, such as parks or restaurants. This will help ensure everyone remains safe from any potential health risks posed by rodents or insects that may otherwise swarm around unattended rubbish.
Start Managing Waste Effectively
Outdoor litter bins and dog waste bins offer numerous benefits beyond simply keeping our public spaces clean and safe for everyone involved — from improved aesthetics and reduced cleaning costs to encouraging responsible behaviour. Investing in well-maintained outside litter bins could be one of the best decisions you ever make.
At Earth Anchors, you’ll find a wide variety of outdoor litter and dog waste bins to choose from, including options with square or circular shapes . Whether you’re looking for a traditional design or something more unique, you’re sure to find the perfect litter and dog waste bin for your school, community space, or business. So get in touch today, and let’s talk through your options.
