Fixing a dent in a metal outdoor trash bin is easier than you might think. You often don't need professional help. First, empty and clean the bin thoroughly. For a shallow dent, you can often push it out from the inside. Wear work gloves for safety. Use a rubber mallet or a regular hammer with a block of wood to gently tap the dent from the inside out. Work from the edges of the dent toward the center. If the dent is severe, you might try using a plunger. Wet the rim of the plunger and the dented area, then push and pull firmly to create suction and pop the metal back. Once the shape is mostly restored, clean the area again. You can touch up any scratched paint with matching spray paint to prevent rust. This simple process can extend the life of your bin and save you money on a replacement.
