Rubbermaid Slim Jim Two Stream Recycling Station 2x 87Ltr

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim Two Stream Recycling Station is a dual-compartment waste unit designed to keep general waste and food waste separated at the point of disposal. Built from durable polyethylene, it houses two 87-litre containers within a single slim-profile frame, making it a practical choice where space is limited but segregated waste collection is required.

In busy kitchen and food service environments, waste separation at source is increasingly important — both for compliance with food waste regulations and for keeping back-of-house operations orderly during service. The Slim Jim's narrow footprint means it can sit comfortably along a wall or in a corridor without obstructing workflow, while the vented channels built into the container design make bin liner removal considerably easier during changeovers — a small detail that adds up over the course of a busy service.

Key practical advantages include:

• Slim profile fits into tight back-of-house spaces without blocking circulation
• Vented channels make liner removal easier and faster during busy service
• Clear stream labelling reduces incorrect disposal by kitchen staff
• Polyethylene construction is robust, easy to wipe down, and resistant to daily knocks
• Suitable for both back-of-house kitchen use and front-of-house public areas

There are no special installation requirements — the unit is freestanding and requires no fixings, drainage, or utilities. At under 9kg unloaded, it can be repositioned easily during deep cleans or when kitchen layouts change. The combined footprint is worth checking against your available floor space before ordering, particularly in smaller prep areas.

This station suits catering operations that need a straightforward, compliant two-stream waste solution — from school kitchens and care homes through to restaurant back-of-house and food retail environments. If your site generates significantly higher waste volumes, a larger-capacity configuration may be worth considering. If you are unsure which setup is right for your operation, the team is happy to talk it through.
