Big Belly Bins swallow more garbage than others, using solar energy to compress garbage inside

You might’ve turned your faces away and crinkled your noses before after walking across an over-flowing garbage bin that has, by far, surpasses its appetite. Well here are some garbage bins with mammoth-like appetites that can swallow a lot more than an ordinary garbage bin can. Using solar energy, the Big Belly Bins, an appropriate name indeed, crush the garbage tossed inside, making way for more-than-usual amounts of garbage. This certainly helps reduce emissions on an indirect level, reducing the amount of garbage collection rounds required, subsequently saving up on fuel costs too! These do cost a bit more though, £3,000 for a regular bin size as opposed to the usual £1,000, but with increased capacities, they sure have a load of benefits!

Capable of holding up to 800 liters and requiring a little sunshine, these bins are innovative and a practical approach to waste management.
