How do you remove the wide sticky tape that held the adverting on the inside bottom of the bin?

I don't remember mine having wide sticky tape that held any advertising info. However, I keep a bottle of Glue Gone by my kitchen sink. Although I dislike the smell of it on my hands for hours after using it, it DOES work to remove that sticky residue. I would soak the bin for a while, see if that will remove the paper, then use some type of residue remover. Good Luck!

There is a double stick tape on the back of the holder. My original installation lasted about 4 years before it became loose. When I installed my new one, I also put one screw in the provided hole to make the attachment permanent.

Haven't removed mine yet. But I read somewhere that its just suppose to peel off then Windex to remove the extra sticky. I figured if that didn't work, then I would just use goo be gone.

Here is the answer to this annoying time waster. 1) Cut and press down the sticky side of the tape onto the surface. 2) Take an exacto knife or box cutter and make a shallow 'scoring' diagonal cut anywhere on the top of the red upper layer of the tape. 3) Lift up a corner from the end of the diagonal incision with exacto knife or fingernails and peel off easily. Takes 5 seconds or less.

Unfortunately not! I have now gone to scotch 3m plastic tabs ....kind of like page markers....OR....what I have done is put down the shiny scotch tape first.....then most things are removable from my containers and no residue left behind, I might also recommend an AMAZING sticky remover called "UN-du". It's like a miracle worker :). ....hope all that rambling helps

It is a sticker, it does not appear to be attached with rivets or screws. I would guess removing it slowly and the use of isopropyl alcohol or Goo Gone should be a fairly easy job.Honestly, I have thought of removing mine too.

J, I am not sure. The label is very small, ~1X1.5 inches. It appears to be aluminum foil and it possibly could be peele away and the space cleaned with IPA. I've done that on other items such as books, with good results.

The adhesive on the sticker is very strong, and probably cannot be removed and reattached again. To find additional adhesive, try your local hardware store. They have all sizes and shapes and you can trim it to size for your needs. Good luck!

Are you referring to the included 3M double sided tape? Any double sided tape should do.If you're referring to the sticky pad at the bottom, just rinse it under water and after it dries, it will be sticky again. Let it air dry as any lint or dust will make it loose its adhesive properties.

The best way to remove tape from just about anything without damaging the surface is to warm it up with a blow dryer to soften the adhesive. It should then come right off.

The bin is hard to remove when full to the brim so try to empty it more frequently. In case you get caught with a full bin, for a permanent fix, remove the bin, empty it and turn it over. There are some small protrusions on each side of the front of the bin that match up with slots in the base of the unit. Use a small exacto knife or file to trim the protrusions until it removes more easily, but will still stay in place. it doesn't take much.

I had a double sided tape. But it was very thin cover on one side of it and very difficult to remove.

there's a switch in the front that says tape eject. just press that and the tape door should open.

I only had a couple pieces of tape to remove. Mine has worked well for almost a year........

Try using good quality needle nose pliers to get a better grip on the piece of the tape. If you use the pliers as a lever be sure to cushion the contact area on the cartridge's body with as wide an object, such as a ruler, as possible to avoid cracking the case.

The Scotty Peller label & Sticker is a very good remover. You might have to use the spry Googone if the sticker has been on a long time

There are two small Phillips screws that hold the base on. One is hidden under one edge of the informational/serial number sticker. I easily partially peeled it away, removed the screws, and re-stuck the sticker.
