You need to ensure that your bin receives the best cleaning care it can get. You practically use your bin almost every day, so why not? Here are some top cleaning tips to ensure your bins are clean, sanitized, and disinfected. It's time to give your bin a spick-and-span look!

Get your tools ready

Before you start, you need to ensure that you have the right tools to properly clean your bin. Some of these tools, you might be familiar with, while some you might need to keep in mind. Whatever the case might be, here are some of the tools that'll come in handy for bin cleaning – detergent, bleach, vinegar and scrub brush. If you already have some of these, you should get the rest in time for your bin cleaning. 

Empty and rinse your bin

You need to ensure that the content of your bin has been properly disposed of. The lingering visible dirt should also be gotten rid of before proper cleaning starts. After removing all visible dirt, rinse your bin to ensure that all noticeable dirt has been removed. It's advisable that you wear your gloves during this process as there's every possibility of bacteria spreading to your body during cleaning.

Wash with soap and vinegar 

Get your detergent, vinegar, and scrub brush. Sprinkle a little bit of detergent and vinegar in your bin and add just the same amount of water to the mix. After doing this, take your scrub brush and scrub the inner surface of your bin. It's important to apply pressure to get the dirt out. After achieving your desired level of scrubbing, proceed to the outer surface of your bin and repeat the same process. When you are done, you can rinse out the bin.

Disinfect your bin

To disinfect your bin, you can use bleach or an antibacterial disinfectant. Using a disinfectant is great for deep bin cleaning. To get started, apply some disinfectant to the already washed bin and add lukewarm water. Like you did while washing, scrub the inner and outer surfaces of the bin with this mix. Do this for a few minutes before rinsing the mix out. When you're done rinsing the bin, apply detergent again and wash it to get rid of the strong disinfectant scent. Rinse your bin thoroughly afterward. 

Dry it out

Now that you've thoroughly cleaned your bin, you need to dry it out to remove excess moisture. Dry out your bin in the sun or over a rack for the remnant moisture to drip off. When you're certain that your bin is completely dry, sprinkle some baking soda in your bin. This will give your bin a soothing scent and reduce future smells.
