Great question! Assembling our standard outdoor trash bin is a straightforward process that most people can complete in about 20-30 minutes. Let's walk through it.
First, unbox all parts and lay them on a flat, clean surface. You should have the main bin body, the lid, the hinge pins, the wheel axles, two wheels, and the locking latch (if your model includes one). The only tool you'll typically need is the included Allen wrench.
Start by flipping the bin body upside down. Insert the wheel axles into the designated slots at the base. Then, simply press the wheels onto the axles until they click securely into place. Once both wheels are on, flip the bin right-side up.
Next, attach the lid. Align the hinge brackets on the lid with the corresponding brackets on the bin body. Insert the provided hinge pins through the aligned holes. You might need to gently tap them with the flat end of the Allen wrench until they are fully seated. Give the lid a few opens and closes to ensure it moves smoothly.
Finally, if your model has a latch or lock, attach it now according to the specific diagram provided in your manual. It usually involves screwing it into the pre-drilled holes on the lid and bin.
A quick tip: For extra stability, especially on uneven ground, consider placing the bin on a small, level patio stone. And that's it! Your bin is ready for use.
