In 2004 Wheelie Bin Art noticed a gap in the market for high quality designed wheelie bin stickers and were inspired to create a range of removable fun stickers that residents can easily use to makeover their wheelie
bin. Wheelie Bin Art stickers are now being sold worldwide via it's website www.wheelie-bin-art.co.uk.
Over the past couple of years Wheelie Bin Art have also worked with many UK councils helping to generate a positive interest in recycling and environmental issues
In November 2006 Wheelie Bin Art featured on BBC Radio 4, ‘You and Yours’ along with Lewisham Councils Recycling Team,
on a programme about attitudes toward recycling.
Research has shown that decorating your wheelie bins makes you more inclined to
recycle. In the London borough of Lewisham, councilors have dotted a grassed
area with bins painted like Friesian cows, recycling rates have soared - with people
queuing to "feed the cows" with cans, paper, glass, textiles,
cardboard and plastic bottles.
