Published February 5, 2025 • Keep Bin Clean ATX
Moving into a new home is exciting. You have thought about everything -- the mortgage, the movers, the furniture layout, the change of address forms. But there is one thing almost every new homeowner forgets: the trash bins.
When you buy a home in Pflugerville, Round Rock, or Hutto, the trash and recycling bins typically transfer with the property. Those bins may not have been cleaned in years. In Texas heat, years of accumulated grease, food residue, and bacteria create a serious hygiene problem that a garden hose will not solve.
We have cleaned bins for new homeowners that had visible mold growth, years of baked-on residue, and bacterial counts that would fail any food safety inspection. Starting your life in a new home with professionally cleaned bins is a simple way to make sure you are not inheriting the previous owner's hygiene habits.
A one-time move-in cleaning is $35 per bin. This includes hot pressure wash at 200 degrees, full sanitize, and biodegradable deodorizer. Most new homeowners with two bins spend $70 for a complete fresh start.
After your move-in clean, most homeowners choose to start a recurring monthly or bi-monthly plan so they never have to think about their bins again. Plans start at $20 per visit -- both bins included with no contract and no upfront payment.
If you are moving into a new construction home in communities like Whisper Valley in Manor, Star Ranch in Hutto, or Paloma Lake in Round Rock, your bins are new but will need regular cleaning from the start. Texas heat does not care that your bin is new. Start a cleaning routine from month one and you will never deal with maggots or odor problems.
No contracts. Pay after service. Same-day appointments often available in Pflugerville, Hutto, Manor, and Round Rock.
