Which type of trash can should I buy?
The ideal type of trash can differs by setting: A great receptacle for a home may not serve the needs of a school or small business. Accordingly, shoppers selecting a trash can should first consider which materials will withstand their waste disposal needs.
Plastic trash cans work well for homes, and heavy-duty plastic trash cans can be used for industrial or outdoor trash collection. Metal trash cans can be suitable for a range of purposes, although stainless steel options are generally intended for indoor use. Wooden trash cans are also an option: These are often combined trash-and-tray receptacles used in dining establishments.
Which sizes of trash cans are available?
Trash can sizes are enormously varied, spanning from small cans that fit under one’s desk to massive receptacles for industrial waste. While the typical kitchen garbage can holds approximately 13 gallons of waste, trash cans can contain as little as 4 gallons or as much as 96 gallons.
Which colors and shapes do trash cans come in?
While trash cans typically come in dark shades, such as black, brighter color options are also available. From white to red, blue, black, and gold, bold trash can colors can suit any style — and indicate specific types of waste, such as certain kinds of recycling.
Additionally, trash cans are available in rectangular, square, and circular shapes, permitting shoppers to choose the type best suited to their space.
What are some good trash can brands?
High-quality trash cans use durable materials and are designed to withstand the wear and tear of daily use. Rubbermaid and Simplehuman are both well-respected brands that use solid materials to produce a variety of trash can sizes.
