How to Empty the Bin of a Dyson V10 Vacuum

The new, 2018 Dyson V10 has move to a direct "in-line" bin which empties vertically instead of horizontally. This makes aiming the drop very easy plus you can actually lower the vacuum in the trash bin before opening, but the new system takes some practice.

To open the V10 and empty the bin you need to: remove any cleaning tools or extension pieces, then put the vacuum over the bin. Firmly press the red tab on the underside of the clear waste receptacle. It push open DOWNWARD after a second, keep pushing until you hear a distinct "click" and the front of the bin opens. This will let everything inside fall out.

To close the bin just push the door shut and then put then clear plastic component back into place!

The fact that this video has over half a million views shows that Dyson really did a bad job explaining this 😂 Thank you, it helped me as well.

I read the owner's manual and couldn't find precise directions on how to do this. You are a lifesaver. Thank you sir!

So glad you made this. I felt like an idiot and was worried I was going to break my brand new vacuum. My dad often said “average strength, men. If you’re forcing it, something’s not right” He’s forced and broken many things so he learned the hard way before teaching us kids growing up 😂

Who needs manuals when there’s a YouTube channel with just about anything under the sky? And beyond? Saved me some majors headaches! Cheers!

Thank you! The idiotic booklet has no directions, just a drawing of sliding it off! Much appreciated you took the time to show this.

Thank you for sharing this information! I am house sitting for my son and daughter in law and the last thing I want is for them to come home to find something broken! Your video helped prevent that from happening! Blessings to all in love and light!🙏🏼💜🙏🏼💙🙏🏼🧡🙏🏼💛🙏🏼💚🙏🏼

I cleaned my Dyson V10, disassembled the gadgets, and thought “sure, I’ll remember what I did 10 minutes ago.” Nope, I forgot. Thank you for helping me. ❤

Thank you!!! I just got my Dyson today and the instruction with diagrams was useless!

[ROCROC]

You really helped me a lot because I could not figure it out. The diagrams in the manual are not helpful. The diagram on page 7 illustrates a pullback motion on the red clicker switch while the diagram on page 8 illustrates pushing that same red switch. The fact that you explained that the red parts indicate an action part is brilliant. Thank goodness for YouTube contributors like yourself!
Thank you for publishing!!

You're right, it's not entirely obvious. Thank you for showing how easy it actually is.

This video was very useful to me. Thank you. Simple. Short. But very useful. I couldn’t get the bin to open before this video.

[rymoemusic]

Omg thank you so much! Can’t believe I couldn’t figure this out of my own but after 15 minutes of staring at my owners manual and fiddling with that little red lever, I finally found your video and it’s so simple!

[janetmckeon]

Video was fantastic. In the first 10 seconds I knew what I needed to do. I could not figure it out without the help of this video! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[ShanesQueenSite]

Thanks for this. Ours was a little stiff to open the very first time but after watching the video it gave us confidence to push that little bit harder and it worked perfectly. Thanks

[TheGamingLot]

The joy that is YouTube. Couldn't for the life of me work this out. Watched your video and voila !!! Thanks

[CelticInfinity]

Thank you!!! This is my first Dyson and I couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do for the better part of a day. I'm not sure I would have ever figured that out! And thank you for the clue on red parts! :) I really appreciate your helpful video!

[yenheng]

[kirsten]

Randomly found your channel researching notebooks, and I like going to the most popular video. Ngl this is kind of a funny video to me, i'm so young that this is the ONLY way I have ever used vacuums

[JuanitaMcDowell]

God bless your life for doing this video!! ❤❤ I learned from you but then, months later—forgot😅 2:18 Thank you again.

[stevearenberg]

Just joining the others in thanking you for your public service. The owner’s manual (small pictures, no text) was pretty useless. The process is so easy, but I’m not sure how long it would have taken to figure it out on my own. Thanks again.
