Commercial trash bin cleaning equipment uses a fixed cleaning head with spinning and turbo nozzles to wash the inside of a trash can in seconds. The operator doesn't have to stick a wand into the bin and get sprayed with what comes back out. Hot And Mighty offers single and dual bin cleaning heads for facilities, and complete mobile trailer systems with hot or cold water and wash water recycling for bin cleaning contractors.
Why a bin cleaning head beats a pressure washer wand
- Cleaner and safer for the operator. The bin sits over the head, so garbage and dirty water go down, not back at the person cleaning.
- Complete coverage. Multiple nozzles at different spray angles plus a turbo nozzle clean the entire interior, including the bottom and corners.
- Faster. A dual head cleans two bins at once, so a crew gets through a route or a facility's bins much more quickly.

Mobile trash bin cleaning with wash water recycling
For contractors, we build the single or dual bin cleaning head onto an open deck trailer with a cold or hot water pressure washer, a water tank and wash water recycling. Recycling means you aren't dumping dirty bin water at the curb, and you can clean more bins per tank of water. Hot water is worth considering if you'll be cutting grease from restaurant and food service bins.
Frequently asked questions
What size pressure washer does a bin cleaning head need?
The HCA-2 dual head is designed for 8 or 10 GPM pressure washers.
Can I use my existing pressure washer?
Yes. The cleaning head is sold on its own for anyone who already has a suitable washer.
Do I need hot water to clean trash bins?
Cold water handles most residential bins. Hot water breaks down grease and food residue faster, so it's worth it for restaurant, grocery and food processing bins.
Can wash water from bin cleaning be recycled?
Yes. Our mobile bin cleaning trailers can include recovery and recycling so the water is filtered and reused rather than discharged.
