What have you got for a bin?
We’ve got one of those silly hinged bins with no back and a flimsy plastic hoop that holds it all together and self destructs within the first few months. They offer a replacement hoop for almost the cost of a new bin. For recycling we’ve a bag hanging on a hill…not pretty.
I thought we’d get a couple of small wall mounted jobbies from Amazon for general waste and recycling. But simply can’t find any big enough that will fit the space available either much too small or just too big. Who would have thought its so difficult to find a bin.
 
We do the same just have a bag hanging off a door handle as the bins supplied are about as much use as a chocolate tea pot.
But I have heard a lot of people are removing them and replacing them with these

Use one of these, small but as I travel on my own more than adequate. Always have a bin bag in garage as well.

Our van came with one of these and the hoop was already broken. I did replace it with the 'improved design' and, so far, it's held up. It is fiddly though. I was a designer before retirement and we had a saying for this sort of thing - 'the product of a confused mind'.
 
In the MH or house?

In the MH I glued 2 hooks near the front door so a carrier can hang on them. the Auto-trail comes with a built in bin in the door but it is too small and a bit of a pain to use so we keep our swimming shoes in that. We use carriers we get given or I buy them at £4.50 per 100 off Fleabay.

At home its a Brabantia 30 litre pedal bin. Two white sacks from that fills a standard size black bin bag nicely.
 
Only one plastic wall mount bin with a flip flop lid in the loo, we use small bags and store in the sink to we find a lamp post bin along the road or in a carpark.

No need for a bin, we just open the door and chuck the rubbish out.
Sometimes, if the wind is in the wrong direction, we chuck it out of the window.

We've noticed a lot of people with a Green W sticker on their MoHo pick it up and take it away.
However, these lazy sods seldom do anything about the mess from where we empty our chemical toilet!

I thought it was common knowledge that all motorhome owners throw their rubbish out of the door or window,
So that car drivers could pick our rubbish up as soon as they have finished their Mc Donald’s
 
We became skilled, " Reverse pick pockets.".
We would compress our rubbish into small sandwich bags.
Then walk through crowded streets or up to the bar in Wetherspoons.
We became experts at infiltrating these bags into people's pockets, shopping bags or handbags.
For people who'd really P' d us off, a cold poached egg slipped in was always effective.
You should try it..!

I hid some old prawns in my mates work van once Paul.

That was interesting after a couple of months.
 
I use an old window seal bucket, free out of the back of my mates old work van. Pedal bin liners fit it lovely....
