Since, like many others, I would like to hide my trash bins, I am considering planting a snail-shaped hedge with the bins placed in the middle. This way, they would only be visible when standing directly in front of them. What do you think of this idea?

Does anyone have experience with this?

(You might be familiar with the snail-shaped showers used in bathrooms. Something like that, but as an evergreen hedge.)

Why not, but you will need quite a bit of space.
We have around 3 tons plus yellow bags that I don’t want to store outdoors.

That probably looks nice, but I prefer to haul full tons in a straight line over a short distance.

You won’t see the trash bins, but a huge hedge spiral instead. 50cm (20 inches) hedge, 100cm (40 inches) walkway, standing area plus movement space in the center of the spiral...

I would do it like this (which doesn’t mean that I will actually do it, because I don’t have that much space):

and directly in front of the bins there is a one-meter (3 feet) maneuvering space, as you need to be able to pass through with bins and buckets/bags yourself.
This quickly turns 2 square meters (22 square feet) of waste area into 10-15 square meters (108-161 square feet).
