Without regular cleaning, trash bins become breeding grounds for harmful bacteria including E. coli, Salmonella, and Listeria. The warm, humid Florida climate accelerates decomposition and bacterial multiplication. Unclean bins attract rodents, flies, maggots, roaches, and other pests that can spread disease. Foul odors permeate garages, driveways, and outdoor spaces. Over time, acidic residue and biological buildup cause cracks, warping, and permanent damage to bins.
