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?

Yes!!! I knwo that scene very well..gosh they love a bin…super gross when the bathroom bin!!

Every room. Why not?

Recycling and food waste in kitchen, lidded in bathrooms. At least that way manky tissues and stuff is well contained in one place, not scattered around.

Kitchen, bathroom, three bedrooms and office

Kitchen and en-suites. Have never had bins in guest bathrooms.

Maybe they thing there helping by putting the rubbish back where it was 😂

Each bedroom has a waste paper style bin. Each bathroom has a bin with a lid and the kitchen has a pull out bin and recycling bins.

Just the living room. I take all the rubbish from the bathroom and kitchen and put it in a binbag.
I live on my own and don't have a lot of rubbish, so it's easier to do it that way.

Yes in all rooms except the hall and landing

Kitchen, sitting room plus one upstairs. Bathroom floor space a bit limited, so we decided not to have one in there. Plus loo roll cores and soap wrappers etc go in recycling so I'm not keen to end up picking them out of a bin to recycle. My lot are relatively good re putting rubbish in bins.

Please put them in guest bathrooms too. Where do you expect them to out their rubbish such as tampon wrappers, used San pro etc. Are they supposed to walk around the house with it?

Kitchen, bathroom and toilet have bins with lids.
Bedrooms, workspaces and living rooms have waste paper baskets.

Thanks for your opinion. Ridiculous or not, as I said in my OP both my family members and I are not good at putting rubbish in the kitchen bin.

We are not very tidy people. We aren't rude or judgmental though.

Every room, why wouldnt you

It infuriates me in holiday rentals when theres only one bin and a tiny one in the bathroom. Where are all my snotty tissues going to go

Amusingly my mum asked me why we don't have a bin in every room when she came to stay this week. I couldn't answer; I'd never even thought about it or noticed it before. I wondered if it's one of the (many) reasons she has always been able to keep a much neater and cleaner house than me.

Wow. Getting 10,000 steps in must be no bother to you. 😁

You cheapskates. Only two in the lounge?

We have a wheelie bin each, one next to our designated seating location. So that's one at each end of the sofa, one by each armchair (we have two of those). a general wheelie, a MIL wheelie (although she does not live with us), a guest wheelie, and a pedal-bin for the cat (for it's poop and dead mice, we don't put the cat in it - that would be a bit uncouth) .

And still I find the odd pizza box under the sofa, apple cores on the window sill, and yesterday, a partially-gnawed 'parsons nose' by Grandad's pipe rack.

Kitchen, bathroom and bedroom.

I only have one bin in the house which is in the kitchen - many of my friends find this strange!

Only kitchen and bathroom. I find it a faff to empty those two, so wouldn't want any more. It is easy enough to take rubbish in other rooms straight to one of those two bins.

Tissues, wrappers of things you've bought, empty containers of face cream/body lotion/deodorants/empty things.

Every room except for the downstairs loo.

Kitchen , 2 bedrooms and bathroom

Thanks to recycling I now only have a normal refuse bin in the kitchen and bathroom plus the recycling bins in the kitchen.

Waste paper baskets in reception rooms and each bedroom. Plus bathroom bins and kitchen bin.

Good question! Just had a count up and there are 15 😂
