Product Description
The Rubbermaid Slim Jim Recycling Station is a single-stream waste bin designed specifically for general waste collection in commercial and public-facing environments. Built from polyethylene in a slim-profile form factor, it is intended to fit into tighter spaces without sacrificing usable capacity, making it a practical choice where floor space is at a premium.
In busy kitchens, canteens, and front-of-house areas, consistent and clearly labelled waste separation points make a real difference to how well staff and visitors comply with waste routines. The Slim Jim's clear general waste labelling removes ambiguity at the point of disposal, which helps keep recycling streams uncontaminated during service — a common problem when bins are poorly identified or difficult to use quickly.
From an operational standpoint, the design includes vented channels that make liner removal considerably easier, reducing the friction around a task that staff need to perform regularly throughout a shift. Key practical advantages include:
- Slim footprint suits narrow corridors, serveries, and back-of-house areas
- Vented channels allow bin liners to release cleanly without effort
- Modular design — units can be grouped to create a multi-stream waste station
- Clear stream labelling supports waste compliance in busy environments
- Polyethylene construction is robust, easy to wipe down, and resistant to daily knocks
The modular nature of the Slim Jim range is worth considering at the planning stage. If you anticipate needing separate streams for dry mixed recycling, glass, or food waste alongside general waste, additional matching units can be combined into a co-ordinated station. For higher-volume sites with larger waste output, higher-capacity options within the range may be more appropriate.
This unit works well in kitchens, staff canteens, educational facilities, and front-of-house areas where a tidy, functional waste point is needed without a large footprint. If you are planning a wider waste management setup or are unsure which combination of streams best fits your site, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — the Slim Jim range is designed to be modular, so this general waste unit can sit alongside other single-stream stations covering dry mixed recycling, glass, or food waste. This makes it straightforward to build a co-ordinated, clearly labelled waste station without needing a bespoke solution.
- The slim profile and clean labelling make it appropriate for both environments. Front-of-house, the tidy footprint and clear signage help visitors dispose of waste correctly. Back-of-house, the vented liner removal and robust polyethylene construction hold up well to the pace of a working kitchen.
- An 87-litre station suits moderate-volume sites — a busy staff canteen, a mid-sized kitchen, or a school servery, for example. If your operation generates waste rapidly across a full service day, or if liner changes need to be kept to an absolute minimum, a higher-capacity option from the range may be worth considering. We can help you work that out based on your service volumes.
