Which rooms have a bin in your home?

[Wishitwasstraightforward]

I'm not a naturally tidy person and neither are the rest of my family. I'm trying to implement systems and strategies to help us keep the house in a better state.

We have a bin in the kitchen and a small one in the bathroom. Unsurprisingly, rubbish doesn't make it into either bin as much as it should.

I think a bin in every room might help. I guess more of a waste paper type bin rather than one for anything more grubby.

Do other people have bins in several rooms or am I being ridiculous?

Kitchen..bathroom...one in each bedroom.
Sounds like you need bedroom ones.

Every room, it really helps!

although dogs randomly empty them 😬

Kitchen, bathroom, and the 2 study's.

Just the kitchen.

Kitchen, bathroom, downstairs toilet and eldest 2 dc's rooms.

Two in the kitchen easier for recycling. One in the bedroom, two in the office. One in the sitting room. I should put one in the bathroom at present hanging carrier bag on a hook.

Pretty much every room. Kitchen, sitting room, study, playroom, dining room, all bedrooms and bathrooms. It makes a huge difference to the house tidiness.

Every room. Otherwise stuff doesn't get binned 😂

However, I HIGHLY recommend 'training' your family to only put dry rubbish/wrappers in the bins, and anything wet/sticky goes in the bathroom/kitchen bins. DS is used to this now and normally I whip round every day and empty the rubbish into a main bin, so I don't use too many bags (and don't have rubbish sat in bins all week 🤢)

Quite a few actually 😬
one large general waste in the kitchen, one food waste caddy, four recycling bags in the utility (labelled). One small waste bin in the lounge. Small bins in the bathroom and bedroom.

Just kitchen and bathrooms here. But I really think we need one in each room.

Kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms

Kitchen and bathroom.
we don’t have bins in bedrooms or in the living room.

In my house, it's only the living room and the hallway which don't have bins.
So 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and the kitchen all have a bin.

Every room.

Just the kitchen and a small one in DDs room we are in a flat.

You need to come at this at a proper Change Management pov, where in the room does the rubbish accumulate? Because that's where the bin needs to go so the change in behaviour is minimal - no good squeezing a waste paper bin behind the door when all the rubbish ends up on the coffee table. You also want open lids rather than a peddle bin so it requires absolute minimal effort.

Every bedtoom; bathroom; lounge; kitchen

Bathroom and kitchen.

All of them! I can’t imagine otherwise, there’d be crap everywhere from the kids.

Kitchen,bathroom and the spare bedroom.

Kitchen bin with 2 sections for recycling/ non-recyclable.

Waste paper type bins in all bedrooms.

DS17 goes through so many cans and plastic bottles he gets an extra basket type thing for recyclables in his room.

Bathroom - small pedal bin & other bin for recycling, loo roll tubes, etc

Don't have one in living room. Never needed it. Usually shove rubbish and wrappers at whatever unfortunate sod is heading near the kitchen. And I just know the dog would be a real dick about it.

All of them and one has two (one by a desk and another nearer the bed).

Every room has an open wastepaper - type bin near the door so it's visible and easy to use. Except kitchen and bathrooms which have lidded bins, recycling etc.
I have a large family with scatty kids, and come from a chaotic home and a family full of ADHD people. This is a way of making life easier. Make it easy for people to "win" by binning things!

Downstairs loo
3 bedrooms
Bathroom

The only room that doesn't have one iz the dining room, but that's because hardly use it.

Our house is small, you are never more than 20 feet from the bin in the kitchen or bathroom.

Thank you for the responses. Mind blown! Sounds like it wouldn't be unusual to have a bin in every / most rooms. Goodness only knows why I didn't think about this before 🤷🏻‍♀️.
