Bin number stickers for wheelie bins

Bin number stickers are one of the easiest ways to mark your wheelie bin clearly. A visible house number helps make your bin easier to spot on collection day and reduces the chance of it being confused with another household’s bin.

They are useful for wheelie bins, recycling bins and outdoor storage bins, especially in places where several bins are kept close together.

Where to place your bin number sticker

The best position is usually the front or lid of the bin, depending on where it will be most visible. Choose a clean, dry and smooth area so the number is easy to read from the pavement, driveway or roadside.

For maximum visibility, use a clear colour contrast. Dark numbers work well on lighter bins, while lighter vinyl can stand out better on darker bin colours.

Practical outdoor sticker ideas

A house number decal is the most practical option if identification is the priority, but decorative bin stickers can add personality too. You can use them to mark different household bins, recycling bins or outdoor storage in a simple and affordable way.
