Fix hole in Garden Waste Wheelie BIn.

[Harry Bloomfield]

What should I seal it round perspex with?

Why would you sand or seal it?

A bit of thin, galv sheet steel, or alloy, cut to size would be my choice for longevity. Four 6mm roofing bolts and nuts, would be adequate, to fix it in place. Drill the sheet corners first, then drill the bin to match.

Why is this thread still active, and the deed not completed, six weeks after the OP?

I think, having bolted the sheet of whatever in place (ply is easier to come by and easier to cut) I'd be tempted to use a holesaw in a few places to make drainage holes, if garden waste is going in.

Why? Our brown garden waste bin has no such holes, it just has a couple of extra vents, close to the lid. The cuttings go in dry, and sweat down a bit, but there is never any water collected in the bottom.

Try not fixing it at all and see if the bin works. From the initial picture I'd say there is still enough structure to the floor to retain the contents

You're definitely overthinking it

Exactly this.
It's a bin
