G'day MySwaggers
What do you guys use to put rubbish into when you're camping.
We use a 20 litre plastic bucket/drum with a plastic bag inside.
:cheers:
-
Spare tyre bag-Michell Sacs with garbage bag liner. Works a treat with all rubbish kept outside the vehicle and wildlife can't get it.....
-
We now use a croc bin as it takes up less storage room when packed up

Stolen from Kit e kats idea (which she modified from someone elses ... )

X2 for croc bin
Also use MSA spare tyre bag
I do like the fuel can bins thats a top idea :cup:
-
Like the idea of the MSA/Black Widow tyre bags but not the price tag for some vinyl.
The handbrake is going to have a bash making one from shadelcoth when she gets her sewing machine back from handbrake senior. Could be a treat could be disaster - will let you know.
-
x 3 croc bin (not cheap for what they are but they do work good)

We have one of these as well (goes onto the spare of the camper...265/75R16 MTZ), picked it up for $20 when supercheap were clearing them out and supposedly not getting anymore, maybe should have got a couple, and we also have a rucksacker that fits the patrol spare, expensive but good quality and has never given us any trouble but then again neither has the supercheap one.

Yep I stole DB's idea and it's a goodie!
I used plastic jerries though and I'm very happy. Good to see someone else has taken up the idea Chippy. You are making me think I should have used the old metal jerries I've had for years. Would have to clean them out well though before chopping them. I thought plastic would be okay for us. They travelled well last camp and also stored our wet and muddy ropes and pegs on the way home.
Being that he has a ute, that's usually littered with tool boxes and dog boxes, we've got nowhere to hang a tyre bag :'(

x 4 for the croc bin well just bought one anyway.

Chippy... Is there any need to put a latch to stop them opening if they are say, full of beer bottles??? Make a couple one for bottles etc and one for others...
-
We use one of these but we got it a BCF for $10 :cheers:

Symon (electrical moderator) had the best garbage storage unit on his set up I have ever seen on last years trip to the cape. ;D
Mabey he can fill you in. >:D
cheers duggie

We use 2 chook feed bags with a metal eyelet put in the corner, 1 for rubbish, 1 for
beercans recycling. We cable tie them to a handy annexe pole.

my bins have spring loaded hinges. They keep it open, and shut. When travelling they are tied down anyway. Might have to make another one for recycling ... Lol

+1 for the Supercheap bad (in D4D speak - he's been taking lessons from speewa). Ours lives on the spare wheel on the camper's tailgate - that way it's right next to the kitchen for cooking scraps. One of the best things we've ever bough. As Teabag says, keeps everything messy out of the car, and away from the critters.
Mine is almost magical - it almost fell off the back of the camper last time we went away - arrived home to find it just hanging on my a thread. Would have been nice if it had dropped off - would have saved me having to empty it at home. The magical rubbish bag - rubbish goes in, and then it simply disappears...
Cheers!
Matto :)

Looks like they also took the orange stripe off for the photo shoot :)

I am a basic type of guy and just use heavy duty bags and hang them from a tent pole. I double bag them and then attach them to the draw bar of the Camper when in the bush. The croc bin looks too small for me. :cheers:

We use a 60L Willow plastic bin.
Maybe I should go and re-read that "Do we take too much stuff camping" thread again?

That's such a neat idea Kitty and DB :cup:

Plastic shopping bag hanging from a pole for rubbish. Recycle is either burned (paper) or put straight into the Supercheap spare tyre bag with the bagged rubbish. I sort stuff out when we get to a bin. I like the idea of the Jerry cans, but they take up space we can use another way.

When you see a good idea, pinch it!! Found an old jerry can on hard rubbish and used it to make the "Jerry Bin"!!
Thanks to kit-e-kat and chippy76 for the inspiration.

Is that just black tape around the edges or something special ??
It looks like its up to the job. !!!!
I've got 2 old plastic ones that I came by the same way........job yet to be done. Want one for rubbish and one recycling.........

G'day hargs, it's actually pinch weld around the edges. I got it from Clark Rubber, who have heaps of different sizes and profiles. Can't remember the cost but it's pretty cheap and sold by the meter. Great for covering exposed metal edges.
The Jerry Bin works a great. Takes a 20L garbage bag and keeps out roaming animals. Light and easy to carry. I might have to do another one now for recyclables.....

Excellent job there brickiematt!! I think you need another for recyclables ... gotta be environmentally responsible.
I did my lids going the "other way" so that I could open them easily ... otherwise the camper got in the way ;D They work brilliantly.
I used a bit of metal on my lids (near the latch) to keep them square when closed, and line them with 25ltr bin bags now as the shopping bags don't hold up well under pressure. Drilled some holes in the bases, so water isn't an issue when it's raining and so my wet ropes and pegs can drain. Keeping the wildlife out of my rubbish is a priority (don't want the little things to kark it or get sick) ... now just have to work out how I can stop brazen possums licking my BBQ plate!!!! :o
DB's idea is one of the best! Best stolen! ;D Good to see that everyone's are just that little bit different as well. Sounds like there is a market out there for these ... DB ... I think you'd be on a winner if you made these for sale.

Thanks Kit_e. Indeed, one for recyclables is needed, as my recyclable pile seems to grow a bit quicker than the rubbish ;D ;D ;D
Love the idea of using it as a type of wet locker as well. May have to find a plastic one for that though!!

Man, these things are spreading like cane toads :cheers:
Meanwhile, we need to get a new rear wheel bag, as somewhere between home and Mambray Creek it disappeared ??? Hopefully there is a supercrap auto in Alice Springs (our old one was one of Danbri's and it was excellent quality).

I clicked on someones old link up the page, it had expired, but I noticed this at the bottom, one for the xxxx drinkers

Does anyone else have trouble fitting the Ridge Ryder bag over their spare? My Prado has a standard size spare & it only just fits. I'm about to get new tyres (including the spare). If I get Coopers or BFG's there's no way I'll fit the bag on.
-
We use Safari Cans for general storage, they fit in jerry can holders and have a large opening lid to water carrying, for showering, taking dirty clothes home from camping and as a goanna and possum proof garbage bin.Camped at Bendethera for a week at christmas and one goanna thought he had to check out our camp every day for food scraps.

How many threads can you plug your product in, doing a good job so far. I think I've read four this morning

Yeah perhaps "We sell" rather than "We use"? Better to be up front about it... Good product though.

I like the idea of the safari can/ old jerry can as you could also fill em with ice and drinks for the trip there on ya shorter trips then transfer into a garbage recepticle once the drinks and ice are finished with so iliminates extra esky issue and carrying it somehow and less opening closing fridge in the process.
