Waste containers are located away from the building in secure bin store doors this reduces opportunities for climbing and for the contents to be used to start fires.

Bin stores for kitchen waste should be located in a similar way, although it is accepted that for convenience during business hours the bin(s) may be kept outside and close to the kitchen areas. Limited access to service area & parking in sight of residents
