A well-chosen bin store conceals containers while keeping sorting and collection-day access practical. Choose two, three or four spaces based on the bins you actually use and their dimensions, rather than household size alone.
Count your bins and measure them
List the containers needed for your different collections. Their number and capacity depend on your routine and local collection service. Measure each bin including wheels, handles and lid.
The MPDiscount bin store collection includes models listed for 2, 3 or 4 bins of 240 L. Capacity in litres alone does not guarantee a fit: compare your bin dimensions with the usable space in the chosen store.
Choose two, three or four spaces
| Configuration | Consider it when… | Key check |
|---|---|---|
| 2 spaces | You need to conceal two containers. | Available width and independent access to each bin. |
| 3 spaces | Your collection arrangements require three bins. | Access to the middle bin and clearance in front. |
| 4 spaces | You want to house four containers together. | Total footprint and circulation around the store. |
Allow for future sorting needs only if relevant to you. An extra space is useful only if the whole unit remains practical to install and use.
Measure the space with doors and lids open
- Width: measure between walls, fences, posts and plants.
- Depth: allow for the unit and enough space to pull bins out.
- Height: check lid clearance beneath windows, overhangs or other obstacles.
- Access: plan the route to the collection point.
Try the movement with your actual bins and mark the footprint on the ground. Opening a door is not enough: you need to remove a bin without an awkward manoeuvre.
Check the ground and assembly requirements
The base must meet the assembly instructions. Check stability, level and any ground-fixing requirements. Confirm what is supplied and what you need to prepare.
Keep essential paths and maintenance access clear. Follow the manufacturer’s siting and care instructions, which may vary by model and exposure.
Choose a finish and plan delivery
The catalogue includes black and oak-colour finishes. Compare them with your gate, fence and other outdoor features. Consider handle and opening access as well as appearance.
Before ordering, check package size and weight, delivery access and terms for your destination. Charges and available delivery options depend on the order and country; confirm them at checkout or with our team.
Your final checklist
- Number and actual dimensions of your bins recorded.
- Usable internal space compared with the containers.
- Doors, lids and bin removal accounted for.
- Base, fixings and delivery access checked.
- Finish chosen to suit the outdoor space.
