General
No. Each Container has its own identification and will be cleaned each service cycle.
For Monthly Service subscriptions, when Bins So Clean shows up to service your account and there are more bin(s)/dumpster(s) that are identical/same type at your service address, than is on your current subscription, we will clean the additional bin(s)/dumpster(s). You also agree to pay the difference using your current payment method in addition to adding the bin(s)/dumpster(s) to your service subscription in prevention of customers swapping/rotating like bins.
Yes, you can. However, households are best served when signed up for regular quarterly or annually service. One time and first time cleanings take considerably longer than subsequent “maintenance” cleanings and we price accordingly. In addition, it will not take long before those bins are dirty again.
Yes. As long as it is understood, that it will not be considered as an additional $10 bin(s) on your subscription/one time order. We would need the name and service address where the bin(s) belong to in order to appropriately add them to your account. Or you can add them yourself (See FAQ How to add another service address to my account). Only one (1) subscription/one time cleaning per service address. If it is discovered that there are bin(s) that do not belong to the service address, the customer will be appropriately billed retroactive for the additional bin(s) that were previously serviced. The resident the additional bin(s) belong to will have to sign up for their own service if they would like to continue having their bin(s) cleaned.

With the exception of Friday, our routes are designed to service the day after your trash is collected. This allows your trash hauler to do their job without effecting your scheduled cleaning. (Bin(s) emptied on Friday will be cleaned same day unless there are unforeseen delays by your trash hauler). The strategy behind this, is to operate at the most efficient level of service and eliminating wasted time in between service cleanings when there are unforeseen collection delays from the trash hauler.
You will need to ensure your bins remain empty until they are serviced! If they are not empty, they will not be serviced.
Bins So Clean will load your empty bins into our state-of-the-art-cleaning hopper that will clean and deodorize your trash bins, leaving them smelling fresh. We use high pressure and extreme heat while adding biodegradable detergents.
One Time: Cleanings occur one time only.
Monthly Subscription: Cleanings occur once a month, every month, for your convenience.*
*Additional cleanings can be arranged within the month. Please contact our residential services by phone (833.694.2467) or email to arrange this service option.
24 Hours’ Notice: If you fail to notify Bins So Clean (BSC) within 24 hours of your scheduled service cleaning and we show up to provide the service, unfortunately, your account cannot be credited. If you would like to still have service for the month, simply notify Bins So Clean and make arrangements to pay the service return fee (mileage). Then you will be rescheduled for your service cleaning on the next available cleaning day that your bins will be completely empty.
In order for Bins So Clean to provide its service, YOU MUST ABIDE BY THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS or service could be interrupted, skipped or postponed:
a. Bin(s) must be curb side and easily accessible to service technicians on scheduled service day. (If your bin(s) are not curbside without prior arrangements with BSC, see above 24 hours’ notice statement).
b. Bin(s) must be free of UNBAGGED Human or Animal waste. (No Exceptions) Would you be kind to ensure all fecal matter is bagged and collected by the garbage hauler?
c. Bin(s) must be free of cooking / motor oils.
d. Bin(s) must be free of chemicals, fresh paint, glue or other adhesive, or hazardous waste of any kind.
e. Bin(s) must be free of building materials, e.g. plaster, stucco or concrete.
f. Bin(s) must be completely empty. (With the exception of small tiny scraps stuck at the bottom).
g. Bin(s) must not have additional trash, recycling, and or yard debris added after your bin(s) have been collected by the garbage hauler. (Your bin(s) will not be serviced without prior arrangements with BSC).
We are an Eco Friendly Community Based Trash Can, Recycling, and Yard/Organic Bin Cleaning Service.
We clean and deodorize outdoor Trash, Recycling, & Yard Bins.
It is against most state law to pour the waste water from cleaning your bins into the storm drains.
Just using a hose and broom to clean your trash and recycle bins is not sufficient to truly get your bins cleaned and remove the smell and odors that are present.
Cleaning Process
Paint, tar and other adhesives are extremely difficult to remove and may not come off. We will do our best to remove these problem areas as best we can. Cans that have not been washed in several years may also require a few more cleanings before these problem areas are broken up and removed. Please remember… if you have newer cans, they are sure to look brand new after cleaning. If your cans are several years old, they will be clean but may have the “worn look” still present. Please be reasonable. Although we cannot take a can that is 20 years old and make it look brand new, it will be cleaned and deodorized. Bins with unbagged pet waste WILL NOT be cleaned due to contamination of the equipment and health hazard to our employees. We take great pride in offering this new and unique service
Yes, please call or email with your requests to be scheduled for a free 15 minute Consultation and Custom Quote.
Please be sure to leave your empty bin(s) (No unbagged animal/human waste) curbside until they are serviced (between 7am – 7pm). You will see our branded tape on the lid(s) to indicate the technician is finished.
Our service staff will pull the bins out of the street and leave them in your driveway.
One bin takes between three and five gallons of water depending on the condition of the can. If you were to clean your own can using a hose, you could easily waste fifteen gallons or more. Bins So Clean is able to safely clean up to five cans with the same amount of water a home owner typically uses to clean one can.
You mean besides the fact that they look and smell fresh? We will apply a Bins So Clean branded logo strip of tape on the lid of your bin and text you an image (if opted in for text messaging) after it is cleaned.
Yes. Our state of the art vehicles have an automated cleaning process that consists of solutions that are eco-friendly and biodegradable to remove dirt, mold, food and other yuk from your trash bins! It cleans your trash bins in seconds, removing grime and odors – Keeping your newly cleaned trash bins from being a fly and pest magnets, especially if you keep your bins in your garage!
Additionally, since all of our waste is recovered, there is virtually none left behind. We Leave Your Bins So Clean, It’s Ridiculous!
All waste is collected and properly disposed of in designated sewage systems outlined by Local Government ordinances and Waste treatment facilities.
We have found that some of the trash and recycle bins we clean can take a few cleaning cycles to remove the grime that has built up over time. We’ll make every effort to clean your bin to the highest standards, and in time, we have found that our Cleaning System will remove the most stubborn grime. In the meantime, Bins So Clean has eliminated the odors and germs in your bins.
Scheduling
There are two days in each month dispatch will assign and schedule you to the most efficient route, based on the type of bins you are having cleaned. We use a Text Message (SMS/MMS) and email notification systems, because we do not want to complicate the process by having our customers guess when their service cleaning is scheduled. When you are assigned to a route, you will be notified the week of or before the scheduled cleaning, which is why we encouraged opting in to text messaging and or providing us with an email address you check frequently upon subscribing.
Your service schedule will have some inconsistencies due to the demand, vacations, holidays, 5 weeks in the month, dispatch scheduling and nature of the business. You may be originally scheduled for Thursdays (for example) and could be moved to Fridays at a later date, if the demand in your area shifts. We will not schedule your cleanings less than 2 weeks apart; however it may not be a full month in-between cleanings either. It is our intent to service each customer in the most convenient and efficient manner; however there are things that will come up that may alter the scheduling. You do have the option of logging in to your account and checking the notes section of your subscription to see if you have been scheduled for the current month.
Please be sure to leave your empty bin(s) (No unbagged animal/human waste) curbside until they are serviced (between 7am – 7pm). You will see our branded tape on the lid(s) to indicate the technician is finished.
Our service staff will pull the bins out of the street and leave them in your driveway.

Relax, We got you covered! Simply call or email us at least 24 hours in advance of your scheduled cleaning day and we will credit you for that month by adding it to the back end of your service, skip your cleaning and see you the following month. Unfortunately, if you don’t notify us within 24 hours and we show up to provide the service, your account cannot be credited.
If your bin(s) have additional trash, recycling, and or yard debris after your bin(s) have been collected by the garbage hauler, your bin(s) will not be serviced.

Then you will be rescheduled for your service cleaning on the next available service cleaning day that your bins will be completely empty.
If your bin(s) are not collected by the garbage hauler until late in the day, our service technician will either make an attempt to return, and or notify dispatch to see if you can be rescheduled for the following service cleaning day. (In this case, please return them to the curbside the following morning).
