Bins


Throughout town various rubbish bins have been spruced up to show various photographic images on the sides, I guess it's to improve the look of the streets and to try and get people to put their trash in the right place - seems to be working as I hardly ever see any litter lying around.

Linking up with Weekend Reflections, All Seasons and the Weekend Roundup.

Yeah, I noticed that about bins. Also solar panels to generate bin lids opening and closing.

Always good to see clean streets!

That is pleasing to the eye.

That's a great idea. I'd like to see that introduced to Whangarei.

Nice "B" word, Amy.
I'm amazed at the solar cell usage. Here they just have a hole at the top to drop stuff down in. And not pretty but folk sort of take them for granted.

In my hometown there´s bins all over the place. Still some folks don´t use them. But it´s mostly clean in most places.

Painted bins look so much more attractive. We had flowers planted around ours fot a festival a few years ago. Alas once the festival was over so was caring for the flowers

Whether it happens intentionally or unintentionally, littering has environmental consequences.

I like that idea! If it works, that's even better.

Anything to get people used to using the trash bins.

Those painted bins do dress up the street nicely. If the painted bins work we could certainly use some of them in parts of this country!! (Oregon is pretty good about not littering, not so much in Florida.)

Nice looking bins. A clean street is always a pleasure to see. We just got some new bins too but they are not decorated, just plain but still good to see.

I enjoy seeing street art on utility boxes and rubbish bins. Great street shot.

Anything that can make a street cleaner has to be good.
