Bin stores in Hanslope
Bin stores for Hanslope's stone cottages and modern estates, kept behind stone and brick walls rather than across front gardens.
In Hanslope, a single wheelie bin store fitted on a level paved base starts from about £1,000, with two and three bin stores and any new path to the kerb priced on the visit. The key local consideration is the conservation area review, which says parking should avoid harming front gardens and verges, so we keep stores back from them too.

Bin stores in Hanslope
The centre of Hanslope, around Church End, Market Square, The Green, High Street and Gold Street, has 17th and 18th-century stone and thatch cottages alongside Georgian and Victorian brick, all under the spire of St James the Great. The late 20th-century estates around it have more space and a different set of problems. Either way, wheelie bins need a home, and in the old centre that home should not compete with the walls and cottages.
We fit composite slatted stores with aluminium doors that never need painting, on a level paved pad, for one, two or three bins. Milton Keynes Driveways & Landscaping covers Hanslope, Long Street, Castlethorpe, Haversham and Hartwell, and every job starts with a free design visit. The prices on this page are a guide; the fixed price follows in writing once we have measured your bins and checked the ground beneath the pad.
What makes Hanslope different
Boulder clay over Blisworth limestone means the top layer is usually clayey and slow to drain, and clay moves near trees, so the pad goes on a compacted sub-base. The conservation area review says boundaries are generally stone or brick walls and close-boarded or panel fencing is normally resisted, which is one more reason to place a store behind an existing wall rather than screen the bins with new fencing. There is no Article 4 direction on unlisted houses.
In the old centre, the typical job is a single or two bin store tucked inside a stone or brick boundary wall, at the side or rear of a cottage. On the estates, it is usually a two or three bin store beside the drive or garage, on a new pad with a short path to the pavement.

Permissions and checks in Hanslope
- Step 1A bin store at the side or back of the house is normally permitted development. In front of the house, a free-standing store technically falls outside householder permitted development, so we check with the council before building one there. Listed buildings and conservation areas in Hanslope have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed. Planning Portal: outbuildings
- Step 2We check the ground and the planning position at the free design visit and give you one fixed written price.

“Connor and the team recently completed our resin driveway in Bletchley. From going through the design with us and even making pictures so we could see how it looked, to the install and the aftercare, it has all been perfect. Thanks again.”

“Milton Keynes Driveways & Landscaping have just finished our full garden makeover in Milton Keynes. We had a porcelain patio, composite decking and raised sleeper beds. They arrived on time, kept my home clean and the garden looks terrific. They are coming back to do our block paved driveway soon.”
