When you think about making your home look nice, what comes to mind? Maybe a fresh coat of paint, a nice lawn, or some other updates. You may spend time trimming the hedges, sweeping the porch, and maybe even power-washing the siding. But there’s one simple thing many people forget that can really hurt your home’s curb appeal, and that’s a dirty trash can.

It might seem small, but your trash and recycle bins sit right by the curb on pickup day, right in the front-and-center spot! If they are grimy, smelly, and covered in gunk, it can send a message that your home is not well-maintained, no matter how perfect the rest of your property is.

First Impressions Matter

Curb appeal is all about how your home looks from the street. It’s the first impression people get—whether they are guests, neighbors, or potential buyers. A lot of people judge a home’s interior by its exterior.

While a sparkling clean home should include the big things, it’s the small details that often make the biggest difference. If everything else looks great but your trash can is a mess, it stands out, and not in a good way.

• A dirty can can have lingering odors that overtake your yard, ugly stains, and may even attract unwanted pests like flies or rodents. This creates an overall negative experience for anyone walking or driving by.
• A clean can shows you care about every part of your home’s presentation, all the way down to the curb. It completes the look of a well-kept property.

After you invest time and money into a beautiful lawn and landscaping, do you really want a foul-smelling, stained plastic bin to be the first thing people notice?
