Bin Contamination Hangers

Description

Bin contamination hangers put your recycling message on the bin handle, where residents see it as they bring their bin back in. Use them to flag a collection issue, show which items belong in each bin and explain what residents need to change.

Bin Hanger Styles, Materials and Finishes

Choose from 31 hanger styles, or send us your own shape for a custom cut. Print on one side for a short, direct notice, or use both sides to highlight the issue on the front and explain how to sort waste correctly on the back.

Print Colours

• Full colour CMYK: for photos of accepted items and bold council branding.
• Pantone: for logos and artwork that require close matching to specified brand colours.
• CMYK plus Pantone: for full-colour artwork with a specified brand colour.
• Black only: for clear, cost-effective notices.

Materials

• Silk: for sharp colour and a smooth finish.
• Uncoated: takes pen and pencil well, making it useful for crews ticking boxes or adding notes.
• Recycled and kraft stocks: for a natural look.
• Double-sided box board: for a thicker, sturdier hanger.

Full-colour printing on kraft has a softer, more muted appearance than on white stock, making it well suited to earthy designs.

Finishes and Outdoor Use

Lamination is available in matt, gloss, silk, soft touch matt and anti-scuff matt. It adds a protective surface to help hangers withstand handling.

Waterproof options are available for outdoor use. Silk with lamination is also a popular choice, including for notices crews need to write on. Tell us how your hangers will be used and what your crews will write with, so we can recommend a suitable material and finish. For straightforward pen or pencil use, choose uncoated stock without lamination.

Personalised Notices

Variable data printing adds unique details to each hanger, such as a reference number, property address or QR code. This helps link each notice to a specific property or collection.
