How can I hide outside trash cans from view?

OhSally on Aug 19, 2015We put in 4 x 4 posts with 2 x 4's between them, then added plastic lattice to make a fence around our garbage cans. We made the front a gate so we could remove the cans on trash day. I like the plastic lattice because it lasts forever (wood lattice breaks down too quickly) and the color choices were nice. If you want, you could plant flowers on the outside of your fence or even hang window boxes on the two sides of the fenced-in area, but we were happy with just the lattice.Helpful Reply

Trixie63 on Aug 19, 2015what about building an outdoor box and decorate like a birdhouse or whatever. Doors in front to open and perhaps top flips up (on a hinge) as well for easy access throughout the week. High enough for a cart to put the cans on to pull them down the lane.Helpful Reply

Bunny on Aug 20, 2015You can make a simple "fence like" structure from old pallets. The more rustic the better. Simple to attach at the corners and the door is created by another pallet on hinges. Can be stained, painted, or left natural. Super easy and super cheap.Helpful Reply
