peterws you can buy these from most camping/caravanning stores. They have been around for years now. Very handy for your rubbish & recycling your carrier bags. They either clip round or/and have a rubber band to keep them on then close the lid ready for use.

Just cannot remember the darn name so i am off to try to google it for you.

I use it because it is handy for both inside and outside in the awning.

I don't use the bins that came with it. I prefer to use shopping bags where, when full I can tie the handles together for easy carrying to the bin.

Like you, I also have bigger bins for the FC but the wee door bin is just fine although it needs emptied more often.

I've just spent a week using one like this in very strong winds with no problems at all:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lugano-Caravan-Motorhome-Porch-Awning-275cm-9ft-/150811811205?pt=UK_Campervan_Caravan_Accessories&hash=item231d159d85

Has camping table, 2 chairs and camping black sack bin all inside and still room to go in and out so should think plenty of room for wheelchair.

Also able to put up on my own in about 20 minutes, don't think i'll be using my full awning very much from now on.

Good luck with your search,

Carl.

We use a sunncamp ultima 260 which is a lightweight nylon. It is extremely easy to put up. Single handed if required.

Contrary to previous advice we find it very sturdy. We have had it up in pretty high winds. It will spring back to it's shape after a strong gust.

We got rid of our heavy canvas porch & full awnings as we found we always chose to take the sunncamp.
