I was just thinking about using it as a frame ie cutting the front off and using the wheels, the base and the back with push/pull handles to guide and move it about. This would form an open fronted box where all the bits and pieces would be fitted in  like the batteries, the water container etc. But as its built like a brick wotsits house I thought there may be some mileage in the idea. And of course being of a  ''plastic'' construction and fairly indestructable may be well worth considering.

just a thought   :)

A lad I know tried to combine trad wc with wheelie bin cleaning but often the weather didn't alow the two stay in sinc. You have to be in the area following the bin men. He packed both in and now runs a market stall.

Why bother with wheelie bin round if you have a window round. Sorry I cant imagine anything much worse than cleaning out bins all day.

The worse we have to deal with is a bit of bird and the odd bit of dogs. And then you can always drop them.

The possibilities of a well made wheelie bin, even squeeky is interested   ;D    ;D    ;D    ;D

  .  .  .  I wonder whether I could fit a motor to it?   

mmmmmm     would that be tax free? 

A go anywhere, self propelled, all encompassing mobile WFP unit, how many units could I sell a year, a self made millionaire in 5, retired in 6  -   mmm


all on a wheelie bin!

 ;D    ;D    ;D    ;D

haha at least you have a sense of humour!!

why you not want to change over?  Is it a case of feeling you can do a better job with the squeegee or is it something else?

Partly, but mainly I don't need the bother it gives, and the extra work.

It's not really for this topic, I've explained it elsewhere.
Too early to start typing too much now. :o
