Bins are big business

The bin market within the UK is truly staggering, the company says. On average a household will have around 10 bins; except if you live in Newcastle under Lyme where the council alone provide and collect nine bins from each household!

It is probably a reasonable bet that businesses use a similar amount, to which can be added bins in the street, cigarette bins, hospital and medical bins, recycling bins, wash room bins and many more.

No one has actually done the sums but Trojan Bins would reason that the UK is not far away from a staggering billion bins in use. An average of 15 or more bins for every single person within the UK. We have well and truly bin invaded.
