Tired of seeing a messy pile of recycling bins / boxes?  Our Bluum 'Low & Wide' Recycling Bin / Box Store not only provides a discreet & tidy place to keep them all, but features our unique 'growing roof' planting area to add more green space to your garden. 

Available to fit 1, 2, 3 or 4 boxes - please see dimensions below.

This is the 'LOW & WIDE' design.  We also have a 'LOW & DEEP' design which can be seen here

Also available with an open back panel (using minimal cladding), for those looking for a lower cost alternative.  This may be suitable if the 'Low & Wide' Recycling Box Store is going up against a wall or fence, for example.  

The wooden base is also optional - please select your desired choice from the drop-down options. 

This is one of our standard Recycling Bin Storage products, but we can custom-build one to your exact requirements.  Please take a look at our Custom Bin & Log Storage page for more examples, and contact us with your specification.

Green Roof

The roof area of the 'Low & Wide' Recycling Bin / Box Store comes fully prepared with a sealed waterproof membrane to keep the water away from the storage area, our unique drainage solution to take excess water away from the plants, another membrane to keep any substrate/soil inside the green roof area, and free capillary matting to help keep the vegetation moist and looking great.

It is well suited to many plants including sedum / succulents, alpine plants, wildflowers, grasses and herbs.

Delivery

FREE DELIVERY via private courier, to ensure the greatest of care is always taken with your store.

Assembly

Assembly should take the average DIY-er less than 30 minutes, as this store comes flat-packed in easy panels. All you then need to do is add the plants of your choice, store your recycling bins / boxes and sit back to admire the view.

*Whilst the weight of your 'Low & Wide' Recycling Bin / Box Store and its contents will stop it from moving on its own, we would always recommend securing it to a wall, floor or similar solid structure, to avoid any risk of it tipping over (for example if children climb on it).

The store must be positioned on a level, solid surface.

Whats Included
  • Panels for easy assembly
  • All necessary fixings
  • Green roof planter
  • Full, simple instructions for a stress-free experience
  • Capillary matting
  • Planting guide

FAQs

Are plants included?

No plants are included, however, you can use a wide selection of vegetation in the panting area.  Please see our planting guide for more information.

Can I paint it?

Once dry, the wood can be stained or painted with a suitable exterior wood product.

Do I need to treat or stain the wood before assembly?

No, the store is constructed from pressure-treated timber, designed for a long life outside.  There is no immediate need to use any treatment/stain unless you wish to change the colour of the wood to suit your outside space.  We do recommend that it be given an extra coat of exterior timber preservative in the future, to help it stay in great shape for many years to come

How does excess water drain from the roof?

Each green roof planter has our unique in-built drainage system, sitting in the lowest part of the roof.  This keeps all substrate in place while allowing any excess water to escape and fall free of the front of the store.

How easy is assembly?

This should take you no longer than 30-45 minutes, even for the largest of stores.  Full instructions are provided, nearly all screws are already in place, and all you will need is a power screwdriver and spirit level.  We do recommend that protective gloves are worn for assembly and that two people can be required to lift the larger panels
