Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers!

Everything you need to know about our bin cleaning services.

Why do you require 2 bins minimum. Can I book one bin cleaning? It's cheaper.

In order for us to keep the prices low, we require two bins minimum. It takes a lot of gas and time to drive from house to house just to clean one bin.

I have more than 2 bins to clean, how do I order that?

In cart just choose the exact quantity of your bins and we will clean any amount of bins required.

Why should I pay to clean my bins when I can do it myself?

Honestly? We will do a MUCH better job and we’ll do it safely by taking the dirty water with us instead of dumping on the grass or the gutter for your kids and/or animals to track through. Dirty trash cans serve as breeding grounds for bacteria and germs. Having them professionally cleaned by us will get rid of 99.9% of these germs.

What areas do you serve?

We are based out of South San Diego and will be servicing all San Diego from the Border in Otay Mesa up to Escondido. As we expand, other areas will be identified. If we don’t currently service your area – please like us on Facebook and send us an email to tell us where you live. We will contact you when we add that area.

How ofter should bins be cleaned?

For the best results and most cost effective, we recommend that bins be cleaned regularly: monthly or quarterly. But if that doesn’t work for you, we have one-time plan which is more expensive but you can clean upon request.

How long is the contract?

You’re under one year contract on all of our recurring plans, including monthly and quarterly. There is no contract on one-time cleanings either for dumpster or residential bin.

How do I sign up?

On-line is the best and quickest way to sign up for service. But, if you have any questions … please don’t hesitate to contact us at 760-560-7328 and we’ll be happy to help you through the process.

Do you clean dumpsters, driveways etc?

Yes, we do! Our super truck specializes on dumpster cleanings. Please go ahead and book it on our website. If you have something specialized, like pad, driveways or anything needs a pressure washing, please let us know at [email protected] or 760-560-7328

Outstanding work! I placed the request online and the next day they were here! The gentleman was extremely respectful, explained everything he was doing as it was our first time hiring a company to clean our bins! It did not take long for the bins to be cleaned and smelling good! He power washed the harder nasty stuff all around the inside and outside to make sure they get the gross stuff out! 10/10 recommend them! I’m already planning on booking them again soon! I love taking out my trash bins to the curb without having to worry about nasty stuff and spider webs! Truly recommend!

We’ve had the pleasure of working with What A Bin on several jobs - we’re based up north in California, and it’s great to have a reliable partner we can count on down south. Their team is super friendly, professional, and always go the extra mile. In this industry, trust and efficiency are everything, and What A Bin delivers on both every time. Their trash bin cleaning service is top-notch — thorough, timely, and leaves bins looking (and smelling) like new. It’s the kind of quality service that reflects how much they care about doing things right. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, high-quality work. A solid, trustworthy crew we’re proud to work alongside!

Awesome service! Our bins were getting stinky even when empty, especially with this heat. They came out the day after trash pickup and cleaned the bins for us. They are now clean and the smell is gone. So easy to schedule and the cleaning was quick! Highly recommend. Thank you!

Awesome experience! My garbage was picked up and one of the bags must have broken and spilled something awful all over the bin. We live in a neighborhood where you have to keep the bins inside your garage. I booked a cleaning and they were here within a few hours. He was here probably less than 5 mins and the bins were completely clean. Great service.

They came on the following day and cleaned the cans to the perfection! The bins are like new again and smelling fresh! I subscribed for quarterly service and very happy with the results and the whole process. I am receiving a message when they on the way and once they finish. Very convenient and again HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
