Up to now, the consumer’s alternatives for trash or recyclables collection at gatherings were either to clean up the household trash bin, or to hang a trash bag in places using makeshift options. Those solutions were often unattractive and ended up being quite messy. Flings Containers are easier to store and set up, more decorative in-use, and simpler to dispose. Flings can be placed at multiple points around larger gatherings. Fling Containers’ developers say there was a drastic need for disposable, but attractive, trash and/or recycling containers. “In our research, consumers told us that they had no good solutions for managing trash at gatherings around the home or away from the home -- just dirty old trash cans or a bag hung over a doorknob or on a fence,” say TrashCo Inc. Vice-President Vandy Van Wagener. “Reaction to the Flings product in consumer research has been some of the best we’ve ever seen. Sell-through in early stores has been exciting, too.” At most get-togethers, recyclables typically end up getting mixed up with the trash or are left strewn about to deal with later. Flings Recycling & Trash Containers respectively are clearly marked to help guests do their part as the party is going on. An individual inventor named Ed Austin, from the Bay Area in California, came up with the consumer insight of “surge trash” situations --where traditional bags and bins became less useful when out of proximity from the primary trash receptacles. So the folks at TrashCo Inc. worked with him to evolve his prototype concepts, and Flings were the result. When full, users can simply toss out the Flings Trash Containers or empty the contents of the Flings Recycling Containers into a regular recycling bin. Flings Recycling Containers conveniently capture up to 60 cans or bottles, which is a real breakthrough since American’s recycling rate of 30% is one of the lowest in the developed world. Depending on the situation, Flings Recycling Containers may be able to be used multiple times before having to be thrown out. Flings come in four different colors and designs right now, but several more are in the works. The Flings Containers sell for $3-4 apiece, depending on quantities, and are available at: www.flingsbins.com For more information go to: See Video: Flings Bins Subscribe to our FREE Ezine and be eligible for Health News, discounted products/services and coupons related to your Health.
