Fling Bins- Review & Giveaway


We love the outdoors, especially in the summer. It seems we are outside nearly 90% of our time during this time of year. We love to grill, swim, camp, play sports and so much more. Unfortunately, it can also be a drag in some areas... like trash. When we go camping, we dangle a trash bag from a tree, as I am sure most of you do as well. Personally, I like the simpler things in life. Fling Bins has done this! They have created a portable trash can for situations like this.

Fling Bins is a small company based in Colorado, and made up of people who want to make great recycling solutions at an affordable price.


Fling Bins come in a handy, lightweight package, about 1 1/2 foot by 1 foot. Once you are ready to use, just open the package, and pull the fling bin apart. There is what seems like two slap bracelets on the inside. When you hear them click, they are then locked open, and your trash can is ready to be filled! Once it is filled, you can chunk the entire thing, or recycle as you want.

Don't tell me this doesn't look better than a trash bag hung over a doorknob at a party, huh?



Above was a picture of the Gingham Picnic bin, which is my favorite, but there are plenty of other prints to choose from. You can even order sets for a birthday party, if needed, like the Celebration party pack.


The bin above to the right, is the recycle bin. The Recycle bin is of course recyclable and each time you use one, up to 60 bottles and cans are saved from our landfills! Now that is something worth celebrating over!

Each Fling Bin is 13 gallons capacity, the same as your average trash bag. They have a bit of stretch to them. You will also find a drawstring on the top, which makes it even more convenient, which is great.

-My Thoughts-

Fling Bins make life easier, which of course I love. I will continue to use Fling Bins in the future.

Camping, parties, fishing, BBQs and more will be easier to keep clean.

Available at many retailers, as well as Amazon.com, these will be easy to keep in stock.

This looks like it would be AWESOME to use at a bbq...I'd use it at our annual family bbq (which we host the last weekend in August)...thanks for the chance and the review.

I'd love to have one of these in my kitchen for recycling. We generate so much recyclable material that it's a pain to take it downstairs to the garage everytime a new item is generated.

Penny said...

You didn't mention that I can buy them locally at KMart!
