Preventing Animal Break-ins: BearSaver vs. Regular Trash Cans

Dealing with animals rummaging through trash is a common challenge for both public spaces and commercial properties. From parks and campgrounds to restaurants and apartment complexes, animals—especially bears—can cause significant damage and create unsanitary conditions by breaking into traditional trash cans. Fortunately, BearSaver offers a proven solution with its line of animal-proof trash cans and recycle bins designed for public and commercial use.

The Problem with Regular Trash Cans

Regular trash cans, even those made from sturdy materials, are often no match for determined wildlife. Whether it’s a raccoon, squirrel, or bear, many animals have become adept at opening unsecured lids or simply tipping over bins to gain access to their contents. This not only leads to messes that are costly and time-consuming to clean up, but also creates health hazards, invites pests, and threatens wildlife safety by encouraging animals to become reliant on human food sources.

Common issues with traditional trash cans include:

• Weak or poorly secured lids that are easily opened by animals
• Tipping hazards when cans aren’t properly anchored
• No safeguards against larger animals like bears that can destroy the bins completely

BearSaver: A Solution that Stands Strong

BearSaver's line of animal-resistant trash cans and recycle bins are engineered specifically to combat these issues. With features that prevent even the most persistent animals from accessing the contents, BearSaver products provide peace of mind to municipalities, parks, businesses, and other organizations. Here's how BearSaver stands out compared to regular trash cans:

1. Durable Construction

BearSaver uses high-strength materials designed to withstand heavy impacts from wildlife. Their products feature solid steel construction and reinforced seams, ensuring that not even the most determined bear can break through.

2. Secure Lids

Unlike traditional trash cans, BearSaver bins come with heavy-duty locking mechanisms that prevent animals from opening the lids. These are easy for humans to operate, yet impossible for animals like raccoons and bears to manipulate.
