Rubbermaid Slim Jim Step-On Pedal Bin Grey 68Ltr

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim step-on pedal bin is a hands-free waste disposal bin designed for use in commercial kitchens, food preparation areas, and front-of-house service spaces. The front-step pedal lifts the lid without requiring hand contact, which is a straightforward but important detail wherever food hygiene and cross-contamination control are a priority.

In a busy kitchen environment, the soft-closing damper is worth noting. Rather than letting the lid drop and create a sudden rush of air — which can disturb contaminants near the bin — the damper brings it down in a controlled, quiet motion. It is a small thing that makes a practical difference in areas where hygiene standards are closely managed.

The Slim Jim profile is narrower than a conventional round bin of comparable capacity, which makes it easier to position in galley runs, beside workstations, or in service corridors where floor space is limited. The polyethylene construction and smooth, contoured surfaces keep cleaning straightforward — there are no unnecessary recesses to trap debris.

• Front-step pedal allows completely hands-free lid operation
• Soft-close damper prevents air displacement when the lid closes
• Narrow footprint fits into tight spaces without sacrificing capacity
• Smooth polyethylene surfaces are quick to wipe down and keep clean
• 68-litre capacity suits regular service periods without constant emptying

This bin is well suited to kitchen prep areas, pass stations, front-of-house service counters, and back-of-house utility areas where space is at a premium. For higher-volume or higher-traffic areas, a larger-capacity model in the same range may be more appropriate.

If you are kitting out multiple stations or want to confirm the right size and quantity for your operation, the team is happy to help you think it through.
