Our most frequently asked questions for Bin Stores & Bin Shelters
What is the difference between a bin store and a bin shelter?
A bin store is typically a fully enclosed unit with a door, screening bins from view and restricting access, while a bin shelter is more open, offering weather cover without full enclosure. Stores suit sites needing security or tidy screening near a building, while shelters work where quick, open access matters more.
Do bin stores need planning permission?
Usually not for a standard freestanding bin store, as most are within permitted development, but this depends on size, position relative to boundaries and whether the property is listed. Blocks of flats and commercial developments sometimes need consent as part of the wider scheme. Check with your local authority if unsure.
What sizes of bin store are available?
Bin stores range from small single or double bin units for a shopfront to large compounds housing multiple wheelie bins or Eurobins for apartment blocks and commercial sites. The right size depends on bin numbers and collection frequency, so let us know your requirements and we'll suggest a suitable layout.
Are bin stores made from timber or metal?
Both are available. Timber-clad stores give a more domestic appearance that suits residential developments, while galvanised or powder coated steel stores are more common on commercial and industrial sites for durability. Some ranges combine a steel frame with timber cladding to balance appearance and strength.
Can bin stores be locked?
Yes, most bin stores can be specified with lockable doors or gates to prevent fly-tipping and unauthorised access, which is particularly useful on shared residential sites. Options range from a simple padlock hasp to a more robust locking system. Let us know your security needs when specifying.
Are bin stores self-assembly or installed?
Bin stores are commonly supplied as a self-assembly kit, though installation can be arranged where groundworks or a base are also required. Self-assembly suits sites with maintenance staff on hand, while installation is often chosen for new developments being fitted out as part of a wider build programme.
Can bin stores be colour matched to a building?
Yes, steel bin stores can usually be powder coated to a RAL colour to match cladding, render or signage, and timber stores can be specified in different timber treatments or stains. Colour matching helps stores blend into a development rather than standing out, which is often a planning consideration.
