Why spend so much on a trash enclosure? Well, there's actually a lot to gain.
CITIBIN instantly improves the appearance of your home by hiding unsightly trash bins, which in this real estate market, could increase your property value.
Lockable to keep out foragers, interlopers and dog doodie bags.
Every element of CITIBIN was chosen for its durability — long-lasting bamboo composite siding that is typically used in decking, a marine-grade aluminum enclosure and stainless steel hardware that won't rust. That's why it has a 5-year warranty.
While CITIBIN can't eradicate an existing rodent problem, it can keep rodents out of your trash — their food source — so they'll give up and move on to their next victim.
Sort trash, recyclables and compost separately and reduce sanitation violations.
If you live in an area that requires Landmark Commission or HOA approval, CITIBIN will fly through the approval process. Just ask us for drawings.
The panels and doors are aluminum, which doesn’t warp like pressure-treated lumber. The siding/panels are made of a bamboo composite, available in 3 neutral colors. All the components – framing, siding, hinges, screws, latches, and feet – were selected because they can endure harsh weather. The CITIBIN is so durable, in fact, that we offer a 5-year warranty.
It depends on how many cans you are enclosing. CITIBIN is modular, so you can have a 1-module that encloses one can, a 6-module that encloses six cans, and configurations in between. CITIBIN has two size options: one "standard" module fits one 44-gallon can; one "XL" module fits one 65-gallon commercial can.
For example, the standard 2-module CITIBIN is 54.5 inches wide, 29.5 inches deep, 41 inches high (and with optional planter, 42 inches high), and encloses two 44-gallon cans. The XL 2-module CITIBIN kit is 58 inches wide, 36 inches deep, 51 inches high, and encloses two 65-gallon cans. Measurements for all configurations are available in the online store.
CITIBIN kits start at $1650 for a 1-module enclosure. Delivery and installation in the NYC area starts at $300. Shipping and handling of flat-packed kits are free in the continental USA, and internationally are priced by destination.
For the standard-sized kit, the dimensions are standardized to 44-gallon Brute round cans, or two 23-gallon Slim Jim rectangular cans. The XL kit is standardized to fit 65-95 gallon commercial cans.
Yes. We designed the CITIBIN kit to be easy to assemble, a la IKEA. All you need is the instruction manual, allen key, Phillips screwdriver, and a helper. A video tutorial will be available shortly, as well.
The prefab trash can enclosure kits are modular and available for different-sized cans, so if you fit into a prefab, that's usually the best way in terms of cost and timing. For constrained and irregular spaces, we are happy to offer custom enclosures built to size.
To make dealing with trash as easy as possible! The top doors allow users to throw garbage and recyclables in the cans on a daily basis; the front doors open so you can drag the cans to the curb on trash pick-up days.
We also offer a Richlite option, a super dense composite of recycled paper and resin, for clients who prefer a more modern look.
