Secure dustbin lids/ Trash Cans and Compact your Trash

If you put a luggage strap across your dustbin lid. It will prevent wind, or animals knocking the lid off.

Fed up with your bin always being full ? Then condense those items such as bottles and cartons and save space. When you drop an empty plastic bottle in the bin you are wasting space so remove the lid, stand on the bottle until it is totally flat and then replace the lid. This will now remain totally flat and take up zero space. The same applies for cartons with flip up lids.
