A bin store with letterbox merges what usually stands side by side at the property boundary anyway: the wheelie bins and the post box. In this project, a four-bin unit for 240-litre bins in black carries a lockable letterbox flush-integrated into its front. Instead of a row of bins plus a freestanding letterbox stand, a single, straight-lined body takes over both roles – calm, ordered and set with such precision that it noticeably lifts the first impression of the house. Visitors, neighbours and delivery drivers all read the entrance in seconds; a unit like this makes sure what they read is order.
Behind the black front there is room for four large 240-litre wheelie bins – enough for general waste, paper, organics and recycling even in larger households. Each bin stands behind its own door and comes out individually: on collection day you roll out exactly the bin that is being emptied, without moving its neighbours. If your forecourt calls for less, the same solution can be planned as a two- or three-bin version – and for 120-litre bins as well. The proportions of the front stay balanced in every configuration, because doors, joints and letterbox are designed together rather than assembled from parts.
The letterbox is lockable and built directly into the unit. That shortens the route for the postal carrier: letters are dropped at the property boundary, with no detour to the front door – a courtesy to both sides, especially on open or generously laid-out entrance areas. And because the letterbox is part of the front rather than screwed onto it, there are no add-on boxes and no extra posts: one continuous surface with clean joint lines, in which every function has its place. The result looks less like bin storage with an accessory and more like a small piece of built infrastructure for the entrance. If you want to go a step further, a parcel compartment can be added – as one of our references combining letterbox and parcel box shows.
The unit is built from HPL (high-pressure laminate) by Trespa, proven in permanent outdoor use. The material is weatherproof, UV-stable and frost-proof: the black surface does not fade in the sun, and rain washes dirt away. Painting, sealing or touching up is permanently unnecessary – the calculated service life is around 50 years. With an impact resistance of over 40 newtons, the unit also takes the everyday life of a busy driveway in its stride: the knock of a bin as much as a hailstorm.
Every unit from our range of modern bin stores is planned to match the number of bins, the bin size and the available footprint. The construction accounts for the swing of the doors, the route to the street and the question of whether the unit stands free or meets a wall. Special requests such as the letterbox shown here, a parcel compartment or a doorbell are simply taken into the planning – just mention them. That is the difference between a catalogue product and a unit that genuinely fits its place.
The black shown here gives the unit an elegant, precise appearance next to dark window frames and contemporary façades – and it is one of over 250 HPL colours and décors, from white, steel grey and anthracite through to wood and Corten steel looks. Free HPL colour samples are posted to your home in advance, so you can judge the effect directly at the house.
Each unit is developed by us and manufactured in Germany. A bin store of this size is delivered and set up at its final position by our own team, so the flush letterbox and the four doors align exactly as planned from the very first day.
