Frequently Asked Questions
What size wheelie bins can your storage units accommodate?
Our storage units are designed to fit standard UK 120L, 140L, 180L and 240L wheelie bins. For those with larger bins such as 360L, you can get in touch for a custom configuration.
What are the exact dimensions of your bin storage units?
Please refer to our Size Guide.
What materials do you use and are they weather-resistant?
We use galvanised steel, aluminium framing and composite cladding. All are UV-resistant, water-repellent, and built to endure British weather with zero maintenance.
Do the units require assembly and what tools are needed?
Yes, units arrive flat-packed and full instructions are available on our website. Assembly requires a basic screwdriver and ideally two people. An electric screwdriver will speed up the process. Estimated assembly time: 30–90 minutes depending on model.
How does the lid/door mechanism operate?
The lids are lightweight and easy to lift. Doors are self-closing, and the lid itself holds the doors both open or shut, ensuring they stay shut in windy conditions.
Are the feet adjustable for uneven surfaces?
The bin stores do not have adjustable feet; however, each corner can be easily held up with packers such as thin strips of timber. An even surface is ideal for the wheelie bin stores.
Can multiple units be linked together?
They do not 'latch' together in order for each unit to have its own door and lid, however, when stored next to each other, our stores have the appearance of being one unit.
Is maintenance required and how do I care for the unit?
Minimal to no maintenance is required. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. No rot, no problem!
Will the unit rust or corrode outdoors?
The galvanised steel lids, aluminium frame and composite cladding offer premium rust and corrosion resistant properties. They’re designed for year-round use and tested for weather resistance.
What is the product warranty?
We offer a standard 2-year structural warranty on all units. This covers manufacturer defects, more details of which are found in our policy page.
What are your delivery options, costs & lead times?
Standard UK delivery is calculated at checkout. Delivery typically takes 15 working days.
Are units available in stock or made to order?
Most models are made to order. In some circumstances a unit may be in stock, and delivery time will be reduced.
What is your returns & replacement policy?
We operate a zero-return policy. However, if an item arrives damaged or faulty, we will work to fix or replace any unit.
Can I customise colour, material, door style?
No, our colours and materials are all standardised and can be found in our Shop.
How secure is the unit - will it deter animals or pests?
All our storage options have doors that are held by tightly fitting lids, helping to keep out foxes, rodents, and birds. Steel lids provide additional deterrence through robust construction.
How do I prepare the installation site?
We recommend a level base of paving slabs, decking, or concrete. Ensure adequate drainage and space for doors to swing open fully. Avoid grass or loose gravel if possible.
Do you offer installation guidance or professional service?
Illustrated instructions are available online. If any additional advice is needed, please contact us via phone or email.
Can I upgrade or expand later?
Our wheelie bin stores are designed to blend when placed side-by-side.
What are the environmental benefits of your products?
Our composite panels are made using recyclable materials. We use aluminium framing, which has an infinite recyclable lifecycle. All units are built to last over a decade, reducing waste.
