probably an Asian house gecko

yep

 

[Snakewise84]

nah this one was bigger and different color and i have bush behind me and was not pink

 

[kupper]

most asian house geckos are pink to white at night ...... living in your bin suggest arboreal and unless it was a robusta it would have been AHG

 

[Snakewise84]

it was bigger and brown and more muscular with eyes that stuck out more

ln the out side wheelie bin

Might be one of these then?

You've not even given your location, so no one has a chance in hell of guessing lol... besides the obvious AHG.

Probably Hemidactylus frenatus.

Its amazing how different geckos can look during the day, they easily fool the inexperienced into thinking they are different species

 

[Snakewise84]
