- Building A Pad For TRASH CANS | DIY Yard Projects | Trash Can Pad DIY | Life With Liz
Welcome back to Life with Liz! Today I will be taking you with me as I am building a pad for trash cans. We have both a trash can and recycling bin that our city picks up from so we need to build a pad large enough for both. This is the first of many DIY yard projects you will be seeing this spring so make sure you are subscribed with your bell notifications on so you know when my other videos are out to motivate you. Where are your trash cans stored?
In the future I would like to add a little fence coming out from the house to help hide the trash cans from when you pull up to it. Do you guys have any diy yard projects you are planning on doing this spring or summer? We have a few coming up I am excited for.
I am so happy with how this trash can pad turned out. It looks so much better! I cant wait to get that fence up in the future too.

@Hank Hill it was just sand. That's the only 2 products I used. I just put sand over the top and in the cracks to prevent grass from growing through. We have had no issues so far and it's been 8ish months.
Very helpful video. Now that it is a year later - how is the concrete holding up? I am interested in doing something similar, but the trash cans be sometimes heavy and I'm worried that as I push and pull them over the concrete they would break over time.
@@catherinebarry5256 Thank you! They look the exact same ❤️
I plan to do this for my trash. I used to keep them in the front in front of the garage but earlier this year moved them to the side of the house (hated them being at the front). Also, planning to make pads where I have two large flower pots. Glad that I came across this video, Will be my guide.
Amazing! Yes basically the same for us. Ours would fall over during storms too and now they don't. This has held up so well for us! I would love for you to share your finished product with me on IG! It's so fun to see! Thank you so much for watching Mavis!
Great job; doing mine this upcoming weekend!!!! Can’t wait 😜
Thank you so much! You will love how it turns out I am sure 🙂
Love this!! Always thinking of those great DIY ideas!! I could really benefit to be as practical as you are!! ❤️ xx
Awe you are always so kind! If you ever need help with an idea for something feel free to ask 😊 Thank you so much for the support 🥰
I didn't even know this was a thing! You are so hands on because I would never think to do this myself so, go you😅❤
Omg you should see what some if our neighbors have 🤣 across the street they basically have a house for theirs with a roof lol! Thank you Laura! I hope pregnancy is going good 🥰
Liz what size pavers did you use for this project? The pavers are so heavy as they get bigger but you make this look easy!
I love this easy diy idea I can’t wait to try it!!
Thank you Tamika! It's been almost a year and it looks exactly as it did when I finished it. No grass issues or anything I'm super happy I did it ❤
Love it. Looks so good. I have a lot of outdoor stuff planned too!!
Thank you! You do so great with your projects I can't wait to see what you do! 🥰
Wow! I love this idea! Looks amazing! Love the end result! 🙌🏽
Thank you so much!! I am so glad you enjoyed it ❤
good idea, Liz... simple, fast and does the job!
Thank you it sure does!
This is what I needed! I'm doing mines this weekend.
It's alot of work but so worth it!!
Great Job 👍
Love it!! It looks amazing!!
Thank you so much Sammie! ❤
Thanks for the video. Glad to see in comments that it has held up well. I was thinking you might get some erosion around the edge. I plan on doing this over the upcoming weekend. My thought though was to try and get them flush with the surrounding grass to allow for a smooth roll onto the pad. I will see how that goes. Take care.
I hope your project went well!
This seems simple and less permanent than an addition to my driveway. Thanks for the idea
It definitely is and it has held up perfectly for a year and a half old now.
I’m doing this diy this weekend. Thanks 🎉
I hope your project went well!
Recommend Polymeric sand to fill in between pavers. Rain will wash out the sand you put in and the pavers will be loose. Also paver edging helps keep them in place.
Wow thats a really cool idea! Neat how you turn a random spot into something cute and functional😊
Thank you!! It is definitely a much needed face-lift 🥰 I appericate your support ❤
I love it, you're so handy.
Thank you!
You sure are handy,looks great.
Awe thank you! You are so kind 💕
Doing this now! Thanks for the video!
Good job, Liz. I am planning on doing this, but with a poured concrete slab. I also plan on pouring a small sidewalk on the side of our house this spring.
Yes those are good ideas too
Nice Job! Looking to do the same thing!
I store ours behind our front fence. I'm going to be pouring a cement foundation for them. I'd do this but it's such a PitA to get it perfectly level.
Curious, have you had any "large critters" try to get into the bins? If so how do you keep the lids shut from letting them get in? Other than that, great video but I'm gunna use my temper and level to level it all out.
How do you prevent these from tipping over on windy days?
Love this! Great job. Want to see photos from one year later (now).
Thank you Suzanne! It looks exactly the same. It has held up amazing. No grass has even grown through.
Your yard looks very similar ton mines. This helps so much. I'm working on this very project tomorrow.
That's awesome! You'll love the end result ❤️
You’re O’Mazing but I recommend garden 🧤 gloves . The cardio we get by working outside is great!
Thank you so much! That is very true 😅
Good job I thought about pouring concrete but I might do this👍🏾
Highly suggest it's going on 2 years and looks the exact same
Looks great! I am working on a grill paver pad!
Thank you! This would be the perfect grill pad ❤
I think in Australia, we say barbecue, the same as you guys say grill. Is it a thing you cook meat and onions on? I am planning to make one like this for mine to sit on.
@@thatswhatisaid8908 Yes a barbecue would be the same as a grill here 😊
LIKED THE DIY THIS IS MY NEXT PROJECT SOON TKS
thanks Lis
Thank you!
Good video
Thank you!
You need extension on that Eavestrough keep water away from house.
Nice project! Really enjoyed the guidance and the music! I am going to do the same. Turned out fantasric. Look forward to more ❤
Side of the house near AC Unit
Do you have an update of that hole you filled is a fully grown back?
For that little bit i would have just spent the money on sod but that's just me but the pad looks great.
Nice job I need this for BBQ grills
Thank you! This would be perfect for the BBQ grill. Great idea ❤
That’s such a good idea to have a pad like that! Great video! ☺️💗
Thank you! So much better than a mud pit 🤣 Excited to get that fence put in too 🙌 I am so glad you enjoyed today's video 😀
This is such a good idea!!! How is it holding up if you still have it. I see this was 2 years ago
Hi! I’m thinking of doing this to our house. How are the pavers holding up after 2 years 😂?
Perfect they are exactly the same still have no grass grown through or anything 😀
Hi there! Do you happen to have the links for the (first) leveling sand and the slabs?
Let me grab those for you ❤

Hi Liz, nice work I need something like this for my BBQ girls😀
Thank you! Such a great idea ❤
Hi Liz !! About how many bags of sand did you need to use?!
I used 3 bags of sand and it has held up great! No grass has grown through or anything 😍
Think i might do this for my bbq.
You'll love it I'm sure! Ours still looks the exact same and is holding up perfectly nearly a year later ❤
@@LifewithLiz great news!
This looks great. What size pavers did you use?
16x16x2 www.lowes.com/pd/Square-Gray-Concrete-Patio-Stone-Common-16-in-x-16-in-Actual-16-in-x-16-in/3034746
That’s so cool but next time you should use a tamper it works well
Trash can privacy fence next perhaps??
We probably won't but that would look great!
What size papers did you use?
That looks really nice and not too difficult. BTW, it would be nice to have a list of all items used: tools, purchases, and so on. I noticed that a few questions were asked regarding this. Thanks for this video.
Thank you! 💕
How well did it hold up?
It has been amazing! I love it! ❤
Had this held up well since it’s been a year now? We have a guy in our neurons who does a true poured concrete pad for trash cans, but this would be way cheaper if it doesn’t settle over time.
*in our neighborhood 🤦🏼♀️
It has held up perfectly. It looks exactly the same. No grass has grown through or anything. I highly recommend
Wonderful! Thank you so much for your quick response :)!
@@mcmankinable Of course! I hope you like it as much as we do.
Did you ever do the fence? I couldn't find it on your channel.
Hi Liz, what size are the pavers? thanks
They are 16x16x2 www.lowes.com/pd/Square-Gray-Concrete-Patio-Stone-Common-16-in-x-16-in-Actual-16-in-x-16-in/3034746
@@LifewithLiz Thanks so much for the information. Have a wonderful day on purpose. :)
@@lindajones5155 Thank you for watching Linda! I hope you have a great rest of your day too ❤
Need to compact the sand down and maybe a weed barrier may help.
Been 2 years and no grass has came through so what I did must have worked lol
@@LifewithLiz looks great, not hating just my observation.
Good job! I will tell you though those bags of topsoil you buy from the home improvement store are full of WEEDS!
We've had zero weeds and it's been nearly 1.5 years. Thank you for watching!
What size pavers did you use?
16x16x2
Looks like if it gets too windy the trash cans are going to roll forward
How has it held up over the past year?
Yes, it looks the exact same. No grass has even grown through
What size pavers are those?
They are 16x16x2 www.lowes.com/pd/Square-Gray-Concrete-Patio-Stone-Common-16-in-x-16-in-Actual-16-in-x-16-in/3034746
Thank you
Doing the same thing today
@@faroff22 Awesome, you'll love the outcome. It has held up amazingly no grass has grown through or anything.
No paver base?
What do you mean?
@@LifewithLiz I know what he's talking about. I did mine exactly like yours 6 years ago and the pavers shifted and became slightly unlevel over time. I redid it 2 years ago with a coarse paver base under the sand and also used the plastic form pieces around the outer edges. There is no chance for the pavers to shift now. I guess it all depends on how much you care about how finished it looks. It still served it's purpose with the uneven pavers, I just didn't like the way it looked. Thanks for posting up your video!!
Dimensions?
Good job! A simple "screed" would help in levelling.
A) Weed blocker
B)a "paver base" to eliminate using and carrying so much sand
C) paver edge restrain
D) slope slightly away from home
E) play sand for filljng cracks
F) finish off with sealer to minimize stains, mold from moisture.
Side note.....i dont like the cheap soil sold in bags...."u never know what u gonna get" its like a box of chocolates. I would mixed in an organic soil topper like "kelloggs" from HD. 1 to 3 ratio (for seeds)
