Bin lid Maxi Closers

Our winds can be fierce here in SJ. If this is posing a problem and causing bin lids to blow open and rubbish to scatter down the street, why don't you consider a Maxi Closer? 

Maxi Closers are easy to fit, keep the lid closed (even in gale force conditions), are easily removed and extremely durable.

They come in two different sizes, one size for the 240L waste and recycle bins, and one size for the 140L waste bin.

Maxi Closers are free! They're available from the Shire Administration Building so pop in and grab one.

Please note: Maxi Closers are limited to one per household.
