Supa Peg Croc Bin V.2

G'day Mary,

The mesh has holes in it, so if a bird has a small enough beak to peck in the holes, they can.  The toughness of the mess wouldn't stop that, even if it was made of wire!  In terms of the mesh being able to be ripped by a bird, I'd be pretty confident that it wouldn't be.  Never heard of that being an issue at all, and we've sold these for years.
If you are concerned about birds having access through the holes, your best bet would be to get a super tough bag.  You could also consider replacing the mesh insert for something solid like a calico or canvas, which would be a pretty straight forward DIY fix.

Hope that helps!

G'day Lily,

The netting might help to protect your rubbish, however possums can generally get into anything they put their mind to!

G'day Megan,

Great question!  I've touched base with Croc Bin on this one and they've advised a 5Kg max load rating.

G'day Jason, 

The internal circumference of the croc bin is 24cm, so it's too small to fit on top of the elemental bin.  Even if it was large enough, it's way too heavy, so the bin would just collapse.

G'day Peter,

They're designed to take your standard disposable style plastic shopping bag, with space for bags up to about 36 x 26 x 12cm. 

G'day Raegan,

The pole fitting for the bin includes a u-bolt with a thread on each end. This goes around the pole and through the holes on the bracket and is tightened by wing nuts to fit securely around a pole. There are instructions for both fittings on the outside of the box.
