The City of El Paso TX is Serious About Residents Keeping Their Trash Containers Clean. 

This news story is from KFOX14 news in El Paso TX.

The City of El Paso has been receiving rather stinky complaints and its all about the residents garbage and recycling bins.

City officials said the residents just don't think about how dirty the trash and recycling containers can be.  That's why the City of El Paso is now recommending residents clean bins at least twice a week.  Joe Amador the solid waste supervisor said "Sometimes, we put warnings on people's containers telling them to clean it out when there too contaminated."

This is great for the trash bin cleaning businesses! It's also a reminder of how early we are in this industry.  Only now that the standardized bins have been around for a while are people starting to figure out just how contaminated and stinky the bins can get. And how a regular cleaning of bins should be routine, just like cleaning other household items.

From the last comment in the clip, you can certainly tell that she’d happily have someone else do the job!  I’d say that most people would share the same feeling.  How happy will the residents in El Paso be to find a bin cleaning company!

 The trash bin cleaning industry is only getting started and has lots of room for growth in the future. Keeping the garbage and recycling bins clean and sanitized will be a service that over time people won’t believe they ever lived without. It’s no different than other cleaning services that so many people use, window cleaners, house cleaners, landscapers.

There are some things that are better left to the people with the right tools to get the job done.  Cleaning dirty trash bins is certainly one of those jobs.
