The double wheelie bin store and the additional unit with optional slatted shelf for recycling boxes

Last month I mentioned that we
have a new little brochure –
Additions to the Good Fencing
Guide Range – which includes
some of the new products we have
developed over the last few years,
and some new ones too, all
gathered together in one cover.
Now seems a good opportunity to
follow up by telling you about one
of the new products in there that
may be of interest to you. We have
previously made our wheelie bin
store in response to pleas from
customers, who wanted to hide
their not very pretty and growing
numbers of household rubbish and
recycling bins. When we did this
a few years ago we came up with

a smart and strong unit made from
our lovely Jakcured timber, so that
it would blend in beautifully with the
other Jacksons products in the
garden, like the fencing and
decking. You would think, job done,
but no!

Win planters from Outlet show garden

A flaw in our cunning plan was soon
revealed when council after council
“re-thought” their refuse schemes
and started to introduce separate
containers for paper, garden waste
and cardboard, and another for
plastics and hey-ho, what about
food waste? We can collect that
too, in handy mini bins.
After carrying out a bit of research
it was soon obvious that no one
council had the same sort of bins,

let alone the same number and type
- ‘Quel horror!’
It soon became apparent that we’d
better do something to combat this
bin epidemic. Aware that we have
our standard bin store that houses
two good, sized wheelie bins, we
thought the simplest solution was
to offer an additional unit that can
be added to it, to make a triple, or
quadruple (Not sure that sounds
quite right, maybe a four unit?), or
however many you want. This
means that customers who have
already got a double bin store, but
now need more capacity needn’t
leave their bins out in the cold. The
new additional units have optional
slatted shelves and a cabin hook

that can be added to keep the lid
in an up right position too.
Enough said about the wheelie bin
stores, you can see the new version

want more info you can go to your
local page www.jacksonsfencing.co.uk/ashfordlocal, where
you can find a handy link to them
and also a link to a downloadable
