DIY Trash Can Privacy Fence

We store our unsightly garbage cans on the side of our house and I’m (and I’m sure our neighbors) tired of looking at them. Today I have a video that shows you how to build modern, very nice looking cedar privacy fence/screen to hide trash cans (or other ugly stuff) on a concrete pad. This is an easy DIY build that brings big curb appeal results!

Follow the step by step video tutorial on how to pour the concrete pad, attach fence anchors to the pad, and how to build the cedar privacy fence.

I also have a full set of build plans, with the cut lists and materials lists below!
