You may have noticed recently, a not so subtle rainbow of black, blue and pink-lidded wheelie bins rolling onto our hallowed pavements.
Given how they’ve polarised opinion, the Council should perhaps have chosen yellow lids in a nod to a certain yeasty spread! Nevertheless, “Love ’em or Hate ’em” the new Council waste collection service is here to stay.
Some see positives for recycling rates and an end to black sack spillages. Just as many are dismayed by spatial limitations and the awful smells to come, from a combined peril of fortnightly collections and the requirement (for fear of fines) to throw empty food containers directly into the pink bin without using sacks.
Hidden Dangers in Bins
Thought of a bin infested with writhing maggots fills most of us with dread, but it’s the hazards you can’t see which present the gravest danger to householders.
Researchers at a world-leading University for Waste Management found deadly bacteria including salmonella, legionella and listeria in the air inside ‘fortnightly bins’ and Christian Witt, Professor of Infectology & Pneumology identified even greater risk from fungal spores, recommending anybody prone to respiratory infection or weakened immunity avoid dirty household bins entirely!
Safe Cleaning Specialists Needed!
Just opening their lids sends harmful microbes and spores airborne, but ironically so too does the process of scrubbing, brushing or jet-washing bins clean!
“As an asthma sufferer I’m acutely aware of the risks filthy bins can pose,” describes James Spokoini, the Westcliff-based owner of BIN2CLEAN. “Our PPE-wearing staff operate highly specialised bin cleaning equipment, ensuring total safety for them, the public and the environment. Customers’ bins are left fresh smelling, sparkling clean & totally hygienic!”
