Dog waste stations are a great way to keep neighborhoods, apartment complexes, parks, and trails clean and pet-friendly—but installing them is only the beginning. If you want them to stay effective, safe, and looking good, regular maintenance is a must.
That’s where Yard Pawtrol comes in!

🧰 How to Properly Maintain Dog Waste Stations
Once a station is installed, it’s tempting to think, "Set it and forget it." But to make sure your investment lasts and continues to serve your community well, a few simple tasks should be done regularly:
1. Tighten All Bolts and Screws- At least once or twice per month, inspect each station and make sure all hardware is secure. Loose bolts can cause parts to fall off or break prematurely. Use a wrench for the best results.
2. Lubricate Moving Parts- Hinges on the dog bag dispenser or trash can lid can become stiff or squeaky over time. Apply a small amount of industrial lubricant to each hinge and wipe away any excess to avoid messes.
3. Restock Waste Bags & Empty Trash- A full trash bin or empty bag dispenser defeats the purpose of having a station. Yard Pawtrol ensures stations are stocked and cleaned on a regular schedule to prevent overflow and complaints.
4. Clean and Sanitize- Stations should be wiped down and sanitized periodically to keep them looking professional and to reduce odors and bacteria.
5. Report & Replace Damaged Parts- Vandalism, weather damage, or wear and tear can affect how your station functions. Yard Pawtrol inspects for damage and replaces parts as needed.
