How It Started

The Story of our Family-Owned Bin Cleaning Business!

Bins So Clean was founded in Sacramento, California, by a dedicated husband and wife team, Joseph, and Vernita. Their mission was simple yet profound: to protect their family from the germs lurking in their trash bins and recycling bins, while also eliminating the offensive odors that plagued their backyard gatherings.

Joseph and Vernita’s two young grandchildren were frequent visitors during the sweltering summer months. Their dirty diapers, combined with the bags of “gifts” left by their spirited chihuahua, Chica, transformed their trash bin into a source of relentless foul odors. The scorching Sacramento heat only intensified the stench, making family functions in their backyard nearly unbearable.

Determined to resolve this pungent predicament, Joseph and his son Tre took to cleaning their trash bins with a hose in their driveway. The process was far from pleasant and often ended in a sloppy mess. Then, a letter arrived in their mailbox—a stark reminder of the regulations. The notice sternly informed them that allowing wastewater to run into storm drains was illegal and could lead to hefty fines.

Joseph realized that if his family was grappling with smelly and dirty bins, countless other families must be facing the same issue. They were resolved to address this growing problem, but the solution remained elusive.

That is, until a fortuitous 7-day cruise with a two-day layover in Miami changed everything. On a sun-kissed beach, the two met a charming couple and decided to spend the evening together, sharing dinner and conversation. During their meal, the Tuckers discussed their interest in real estate investing and various ideas. The couple, intrigued, suggested exploring a unique concept that might not yet have reached their area.

Curiosity piqued, they delved into the suggestion and discovered the innovative answer to their community’s problem: a pickup truck equipped with a contraption designed to lift trash bins, complete with a water tank and a holding tank in the truck bed. This ingenious setup allowed for a trash bin cleaning service that contained all the dirty water produced during the process.

Starting from scratch, Joseph embarked on extensive research, refining the concept over several months, and Voilà Bins So Clean was born. With multiple modifications and a custom-built, state-of-the-art trash bin cleaning truck, they were ready to make their community safer and healthier.

What is the County of Sacramento doing about illegal dumping? 

The County’s Stormwater Ordinance makes it an environmental crime to knowingly dump or discharge hazardous materials into the storm drain system and the County can impose fines on violators when they are caught. Storm drains are designed for catching rain water only. Dumping trash or other pollutants down storm drain inlets is illegal and is a violation of the Federal Clean Water Act of 1972 as well as the County of Sacramento’s Stormwater Ordinance. If a neighbor is disposing of trash in the storm drain, they may not understand that drain inlets directly connect to our creeks and rivers.
