Waste Management

The Jantex 56-litre recycling bin is a straightforward, lightweight polypropylene bin designed for dry waste and recyclable materials in commercial environments. The beige colour coding aligns with widely adopted wet and dry waste separation practices, making it easy for staff to identify the correct bin at a glance and reducing the risk of contamination between waste streams.

In day-to-day operation, the raised lip around the rim is a practical detail that makes fitting and securing bin liners noticeably quicker. Bags seat firmly and stay in place during use, which reduces spillage and the time staff spend adjusting or replacing liners during a busy shift. The polypropylene construction is easy to wipe down and resists the general wear of a working kitchen or back-of-house environment.

Key practical points worth noting:

• Beige colour supports dry and recyclable waste stream identification
• Raised rim lip secures bin liners firmly during use
• Lightweight polypropylene is easy to move and straightforward to clean
• Compact footprint suits areas where space is limited
• Compatible with an optional separate dolly for easier bin movement

This bin is well suited to smaller operations — cafés, pubs, staff canteens, and back-of-house prep areas — where a modest-capacity dry waste point is needed without taking up significant floor space. For higher-volume sites generating more recyclable waste, a larger-capacity bin may be a more practical choice. It is also worth considering how many waste points your site requires and whether a matched set of colour-coded bins would support your waste management policy more effectively.

If you are setting up or reviewing your waste separation arrangements and would like a hand choosing the right combination of bins for your site, the team is happy to help.

This Bolero brushed steel bin is a straightforward, practical waste management solution for commercial premises. The 70-litre capacity and swing lid design make it suitable for both back-of-house kitchen areas and customer-facing spaces such as reception areas, foyers, and dining rooms where appearance matters alongside function.

The swing lid keeps waste contained without requiring staff or visitors to touch an open bin, which helps maintain hygiene standards and reduces odour escape during busy periods. An inner plastic bucket sits within the steel outer shell, making refuse sack replacement quicker and keeping the interior cleaner between changes — a useful detail in high-throughput environments where bins are turned over frequently through a shift.

The brushed steel finish is practical for front-of-house use. It resists fingerprints reasonably well, which means less frequent wiping down compared to a polished finish — relevant in areas where the bin is handled or passed frequently throughout the day.

• Swing lid contains waste and limits access without requiring contact
• Removable inner plastic bucket simplifies refuse sack changes
• Brushed steel finish performs well in both kitchen and public-facing areas
• Suitable for general waste in food service, hospitality, and office environments
• Stable, upright form factor suitable for floor placement in corridors or service areas

For sites generating higher volumes of waste or requiring a bin with a more secure lid — for outdoor use or areas where pests are a consideration — it is worth considering a heavier-duty enclosed option. This bin is well suited to general indoor use rather than heavy-duty or outdoor environments.

If you are unsure whether this capacity is right for your service volume or have questions about waste management across multiple areas, we are happy to help you work it out before you order.

The Rubbermaid Brute is a heavy-duty polyethylene utility container widely used across commercial kitchens, food production facilities, and back-of-house environments for waste collection, bulk ingredient storage, and general materials handling. At 121 litres, it offers a practical working capacity that suits high-volume service without requiring constant emptying.

In a busy kitchen environment, these containers earn their reputation through consistent, unglamorous reliability. The moulded-in handles allow two-person lifting and controlled movement even when the container is heavily loaded, and the polyethylene construction resists cracking, denting, and the kind of rough handling that tends to degrade lighter alternatives over time. The material is also non-porous, which matters in food environments where hygiene and ease of cleaning are non-negotiable.

Practically, the Brute range is designed to work as a system rather than a standalone item:

• Compatible with the Rubbermaid Brute dolly, which makes moving a full container significantly easier across flat kitchen floors
• Accepts Brute-compatible lids to contain waste, odours, or stored product — useful in both waste management and dry storage applications
• The rounded interior profile and smooth walls make cleaning straightforward, whether by hand or with a hose
• Stackable when empty, reducing storage footprint in tight back-of-house areas

It is worth noting that the dolly and lids are sold separately — if you intend to use this as a mobile waste station or covered storage solution, factor those accessories into your order. The container itself is supplied without either.

This size is well suited to medium-volume kitchens, pub and restaurant operations, and catering prep environments. Sites with very high waste output or large-scale production may find a larger-capacity container within the Brute range a better fit for the workload.

If you are unsure whether this size or configuration is right for your setup, the team is happy to help you work through the options before you commit.

This 120-litre yellow wheelie bin from Charles Bentley is a straightforward, robust waste container designed for outdoor use at commercial premises. The yellow colouring is commonly used in waste segregation systems to indicate a specific waste stream, which can help staff sort and dispose of waste correctly without additional signage.

Constructed from polyethylene, the bin holds up well in outdoor conditions throughout the year. The material is resistant to UV exposure, frost, and common cleaning chemicals, so the shell does not become brittle or discolour with prolonged outdoor use — a practical consideration for bins that will sit outside a kitchen or service entrance in all weathers.

For day-to-day handling, the bin is reasonably straightforward to move even when loaded, thanks to the rear wheels and ergonomic handle. At 11.3kg empty, it is manageable for most staff without assistance.

• Yellow colour supports colour-coded waste segregation
• UV, frost and chemical-resistant polyethylene construction
• Rear wheels and handle for straightforward manoeuvring
• Suitable for outdoor placement away from food preparation areas
• Robust enough for year-round external use

This size works well for smaller commercial operations — cafés, small restaurants, or back-of-house service areas — where waste volumes are moderate. Busier sites or those managing higher waste output may find a larger capacity bin more practical for reducing the frequency of emptying.

If you are setting up a colour-coded waste system across a site or need guidance on matching bin capacity to your service volume, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim is a hands-free, step-operated waste bin built for continuous use in commercial kitchens, food preparation areas, and front-of-house environments. The front-mounted foot pedal opens the lid without hand contact, and a built-in soft-close damper brings the lid down gradually rather than allowing it to fall shut. That detail matters in practice — a conventional lid slamming closed displaces a pulse of air outward, which can carry odours and airborne particles into the surrounding area. The Slim Jim avoids this.

The polyethylene construction wipes down quickly, and the contoured profile has few recessed edges where debris can collect. In a busy kitchen or service corridor, that reduces cleaning time during a turnaround. The 90-litre capacity handles high-turnover waste points without requiring constant emptying mid-service.

• Hands-free operation reduces cross-contamination risk during food preparation
• Soft-close damper prevents air displacement when the lid closes
• Narrow footprint works in tighter back-of-house corridors and pass areas
• Smooth polyethylene surfaces clean down quickly between services
• Suitable for general waste, dry waste, or lined wet waste streams

The slim profile makes it a practical choice where a standard round bin would obstruct foot traffic or workflow. It is commonly used in prep kitchens, pass areas, and front-of-house service points. For very high-volume sites generating significant waste in short periods, a higher-capacity bin may be worth considering alongside this model.

If you are fitting out multiple waste points across a site and want to talk through which capacity suits each area, the team is glad to help.

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim Step-On Container is a hands-free waste bin designed with a narrow footprint to fit into the confined spaces common in commercial kitchens — alongside prep stations, under counters, or in service corridors where a standard round bin simply won't fit. The front-facing pedal keeps it accessible even when the bin is positioned against a wall or tucked into a corner.

In a working kitchen, the practical advantage of this design becomes clear quickly. Staff can dispose of waste without touching the lid, which matters during food prep and service when cross-contamination risk needs to be managed. The lid closes quietly when the pedal is released, which is a small but worthwhile consideration in customer-facing environments or open-plan layouts where noise accumulates.

Key operational features worth noting:

• Front-pedal operation allows wall-flush placement without sacrificing access
• Silent-close lid reduces noise during busy service periods
• Slim profile fits into gaps where standard bins cannot
• Resin construction resists moisture and is straightforward to clean down
• Hands-free lid operation supports hygiene discipline during food handling

At 90 litres, this bin suits moderate-volume kitchens — a café, small restaurant, or food prep area with regular waste turnover. It is not a high-capacity container for large production kitchens generating significant waste volumes; in those environments, a larger or more heavy-duty receptacle would be more appropriate.

If you are equipping multiple stations or working out the right waste management layout for your kitchen, we are happy to talk through what works best for your setup.

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim Step-On Container is a front-pedal operated waste bin designed specifically for environments where space is limited but hygiene and ease of use are non-negotiable. The 68-litre resin body offers a practical capacity for day-to-day waste disposal without taking up more floor space than necessary, and the narrow profile is what sets the Slim Jim range apart from standard round bins.

In a working kitchen, the hands-free pedal operation is a practical hygiene measure — kitchen staff can dispose of waste without touching the lid, reducing cross-contamination risk during food preparation and service. The lid closes silently, which is a small but worthwhile detail in customer-facing areas or open-plan kitchen environments where noise matters.

Key practical advantages include:

• Front-pedal operation keeps hands free and reduces contamination risk
• Silent-close lid suitable for front-of-house and open kitchen settings
• Slim footprint fits alongside counters, in corridors, and in prep areas
• Resin construction resists moisture and is straightforward to wipe down
• Lightweight enough to relocate easily as kitchen workflow changes

The slim profile makes this bin well suited to positioning in spaces where a standard bin simply would not fit — beside a prep bench, at the end of a service counter, or in a back-of-house corridor. It is not designed as a primary high-volume waste container for large production kitchens, but works reliably as a secondary or point-of-use bin at workstations.

If you are fitting out multiple stations or need guidance on the right bin configuration for your site, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

This wall-mounted sanitary bag dispenser provides a discreet and practical way to make hygiene bags available in washroom facilities. Made from stainless steel with a chrome finish, it is a straightforward fixture commonly used in hotel bathrooms, restaurant washrooms, and other commercial or communal facilities where hygiene and presentation matter.

The dispenser is designed to sit flush against the wall, keeping the unit unobtrusive whilst ensuring bags are accessible when needed. It installs using double-sided adhesive pads, which means no drilling is required and it can be positioned easily on tiled or smooth wall surfaces.

• Chrome stainless steel finish suits most washroom environments
• Adhesive pad installation — no tools or fixings needed
• Low-profile design keeps the unit discreet and tidy
• Compatible with standard folded sanitary disposal bags
• Easy to restock without removing the unit from the wall

At a lightweight 90g, this is a practical addition to any washroom setup. It is best suited to lower-traffic facilities such as hotel rooms, office washrooms, or restaurant conveniences. For higher-footfall venues requiring more frequent restocking, a larger-capacity or multi-unit installation may be worth considering.

If you are fitting out multiple washrooms or want to confirm bag compatibility before ordering, feel free to get in touch — we are happy to help you get the right setup.

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim Three Stream Recycling Station provides a compact, self-contained waste segregation solution covering three streams: general waste, food waste, and mixed recycling. Each of the three containers holds 87 litres, giving a meaningful combined capacity without the footprint of three standalone bins. The station is constructed from polyethylene, which handles the knocks and moisture typical of a working kitchen environment.

In practice, having all three streams in a single unit reduces the time staff spend moving between separate bins during service and makes correct waste sorting more consistent. The slim profile of the Slim Jim design means the station can be positioned in corridors, service areas, or back-of-house spaces where a wider unit would obstruct movement. The vented channels built into each container make liner removal noticeably easier — a small detail that adds up during busy shifts when bins need changing quickly.

Key practical points for operators:

• Three clearly labelled streams in one footprint — supports waste compliance without cluttering the space
• Slim Jim profile fits tighter back-of-house layouts and service corridors
• Vented channels reduce liner drag and speed up bin changes during service
• Polyethylene construction resists moisture, cleaning chemicals, and everyday impact
• Suitable for both front-of-house recycling points and back-of-house kitchen areas

No utilities or installation work are required — the station is free-standing and ready to position as needed. The main practical consideration is floor space: at just over 900mm wide, it needs a clear, accessible run to allow staff to swap liners and empty containers without obstruction. It is not fixed to the floor, so on very busy sites it is worth positioning it against a wall or in a defined waste zone to keep it stable and in place.

This station is well suited to cafés, restaurants, workplace canteens, schools, and similar food-service operations where segregating waste at point of generation is important for compliance or sustainability targets. For very high-footfall sites generating significantly more waste volume, a larger-capacity or multi-unit arrangement may be more appropriate.

If you are unsure whether this configuration covers your waste streams or fits your layout, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit to an order.

The Bonzer Small Waste Chute is a recessed bar counter insert designed to give front-of-house staff a discreet, hygienic point for disposing of waste during service. It drops into a cut-out in the counter surface and sits flush, keeping the bar top clear and reducing the need to move waste containers around during a shift.

In busy bar environments, a tidy counter makes a practical difference. Having a fixed waste point built into the worktop helps staff work more efficiently — fruit trimmings, cocktail waste, straws, and paper debris can be cleared without breaking the flow of service. The low-profile design means it doesn't interrupt the working surface or obstruct movement along the bar.

The chute is straightforward to fit into most standard bar counter builds and is well suited to new installations or counter refurbishments where waste management is being reconsidered. It's a small addition that tends to have a noticeable effect on how cleanly a bar service runs in practice.

Because this is a smaller model, it's best suited to lower-volume bars or as a secondary waste point alongside a main bin station. Higher-volume operations or bars handling larger quantities of waste may want to consider a larger chute format for their primary position.

If you're fitting out a new bar or retrofitting an existing counter and want to talk through the right waste management layout, we're happy to help you think it through.

The Rubbermaid BRUTE is a heavy-duty polyethylene waste container used widely across commercial kitchens, food production facilities, and hospitality environments. The 75.7-litre capacity makes it a practical choice for general kitchen waste, recycling, or bulk ingredient storage, and the blue colour coding helps sites maintain clear waste stream separation at a glance.

In a busy service environment, waste handling is rarely given much thought until it becomes a problem. The BRUTE is built to withstand the knocks, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations that come with daily commercial use. The polyethylene construction resists cracking, warping, and fading over time, and a UV inhibitor is included in the material, making it equally suitable for use in outdoor service yards or covered bin stores.

The most practical feature for kitchen teams is the integrated venting channels built into the container walls. These allow air to flow beneath the bin liner as it is lifted out, significantly reducing the suction effect that causes liners to stick. This makes changeovers noticeably quicker and reduces the physical strain on staff during high-frequency waste rounds.

• Colour-coded blue for straightforward waste stream identification
• Vented channels reduce liner removal effort and speed up changeovers
• Polyethylene construction resists chemical cleaning agents
• Lightweight at 2.63kg, easy to move and handle throughout service
• Suited to indoor kitchen use and covered outdoor bin storage areas

The 75.7-litre size works well in medium-output kitchens and prep areas. For higher-volume operations or sites with less frequent collection schedules, a larger-capacity model from the BRUTE range may be worth considering.

If you are unsure which size or configuration fits your waste management setup, we are happy to help you work through the options.

The Bonzer Large Waste Chute is a simple, low-profile insert designed to fit into a cut-out in a bar counter top, giving staff a convenient and hygienic way to sweep waste — used lemon wedges, bottle caps, straws, paper debris — directly off the surface and into a bin below. It sits flush with the counter, keeping the working surface clear without interrupting the flow of service.

In a busy bar environment, keeping the counter clear is a constant challenge during service. A built-in waste chute removes the need for surface bins or repeated trips to dispose of garnish and packaging waste, which helps staff stay focused on the bar rather than managing clutter. Over the course of an evening service, that convenience adds up in small but meaningful ways.

• Flush-fitting insert keeps the bar surface clean and unobstructed
• Reduces reliance on surface waste containers during service
• Encourages faster clean-as-you-go working habits at the bar
• Durable Bonzer construction suited to continuous hospitality use
• Simple design makes cleaning and emptying the bin below straightforward

Installation requires a cut-out in the counter top to the appropriate dimensions for the large chute. This is a fixed installation, so it is worth confirming the counter material and thickness before cutting. It is most commonly fitted during a bar build or refurbishment, though it can be retrofitted to an existing counter if the position and substrate allow. A smaller version is available if your counter space or waste volume requirements are more modest.

This chute is well suited to bars, cocktail stations, and service counters where waste management during busy periods is a practical concern. It is a straightforward, proven piece of bar smallware that earns its place through daily usefulness rather than complexity.

If you are fitting out a new bar or retrofitting an existing one and would like to talk through which size suits your setup, the team is happy to help.

The Rubbermaid Brute is a heavy-duty polyethylene utility container widely used in commercial kitchens, food production facilities, and hospitality operations for waste collection, bulk ingredient storage, and general-purpose containment. At 75.7 litres, it sits in a practical mid-range capacity that makes it manageable to lift when full while still handling a meaningful volume before it needs emptying.

Polyethylene construction makes these containers resistant to impacts, denting, and the routine rough handling that comes with a busy back-of-house environment. The material does not absorb odours or harbour bacteria in the way that older galvanised or lower-grade plastic alternatives can, which matters when containers are in daily contact with food waste or wet refuse. The integrated handles are moulded directly into the body, keeping lifting secure and reducing the risk of grip failure under load.

In practical kitchen use, the Brute suits a number of roles well:

• Centralised waste collection points in prep and production areas
• Temporary bulk holding during large-scale prep or batch cooking
• Recyclables and dry waste segregation in wash-up or back-of-house areas
• General utility storage for non-food items such as cleaning materials

For sites where containers need to be moved regularly — particularly across uneven flooring or over longer distances — a compatible mobile dolly is available separately and fits this container directly. A lid is also available separately if covered storage or odour containment is a priority. Neither is included as standard, so it is worth considering your workflow before ordering.

This size works well for smaller operations or as a supplementary container in larger kitchens. For higher-throughput sites where greater capacity or more frequent emptying would be disruptive, a larger-capacity model in the Brute range may be worth considering.

If you are specifying containers across a site or need advice on capacity planning for your waste management setup, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

This snap-on lid is designed specifically to fit the Rubbermaid Brute 121-litre container in grey. It sits securely over the top of the container to help contain waste, reduce odours, and keep the contents out of sight during service — a straightforward but practical addition to any waste management setup.

In a busy kitchen environment, uncovered bins create hygiene risks and can attract pests. A fitted lid helps maintain a cleaner working area, which is particularly relevant in back-of-house spaces where health inspection standards apply. The lid is made from polyethylene, the same robust material as the Brute container itself, so it holds up well under daily commercial use without warping or cracking.

• Snap-on fit keeps the lid secure during use and movement
• Reduces odour and pest risk in back-of-house areas
• Wipes clean quickly, supporting hygiene routines between services
• Colour-coded grey to match the 121Ltr Brute container
• Compatible with optional Brute mobile dolly for easier waste movement

It is worth noting that the lid and dolly are sold separately from the container itself, so check you have the correct base unit before ordering. This lid is sized exclusively for the 121-litre Brute — it will not fit smaller or larger Brute containers in the range.

This lid suits any operation already running Rubbermaid Brute 121-litre containers, from hotel kitchens and contract catering units to pub kitchens and school canteens. If you are setting up a complete waste station or are unsure which container and accessory combination suits your service volume, feel free to get in touch and we can point you in the right direction.

The Rubbermaid BRUTE container is a heavy-duty polyethylene waste bin widely used in commercial kitchens, food service operations, and back-of-house environments. This version is finished in blue with a recycling logo, making it straightforward to designate for recyclable waste streams without relying on labelling alone.

Polyethylene construction gives the BRUTE its reputation for durability under daily commercial use. The material resists impact, does not warp or crack under load, and includes a UV inhibitor that helps maintain appearance and structural integrity even in environments with exposure to sunlight — useful for sites with external waste storage areas. At 75.7 litres, it handles a meaningful volume of waste before needing to be emptied, which supports workflow during busy service periods.

One practical design detail worth noting is the venting channel system built into the body. This allows air to break the vacuum that forms beneath a bin liner, making it considerably easier to lift liners out cleanly. In a busy kitchen where waste bins are emptied frequently, this reduces both the effort required and the risk of liners tearing or splitting on removal.

• Blue colour coding supports clear recycling segregation at a glance
• Vented body makes liner removal cleaner and less physically demanding
• Robust polyethylene withstands knocks and heavy daily use
• UV inhibitor helps prevent fading and degradation over time
• Straightforward to clean down between uses

This container is well suited to kitchens, hospitality operations, and facilities management settings where consistent waste segregation is required. For very high-volume sites or operations managing multiple waste streams simultaneously, it is worth considering whether a larger capacity option or a lidded variant better fits the workflow.

If you are specifying waste management solutions across a site or are unsure which capacity and configuration suits your operation, our team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Jantex litter picker is a straightforward, lightweight tool designed for collecting rubbish and debris from floors without the need to bend down. Constructed from aluminium and plastic, it weighs very little, making it practical for prolonged use during cleaning rounds. The grooved jaw mechanism grips litter firmly, reducing the need for repeated attempts on awkward or small items.

In a commercial catering setting, keeping external areas, bin stores, delivery yards, and front-of-house spaces free of litter is a routine hygiene and presentation task. This picker handles that job efficiently, allowing staff to work upright and move through an area quickly without interrupting other duties.

• Upright working position reduces back strain during cleaning rounds
• Grooved jaw gives a reliable grip on a range of litter types
• Lightweight aluminium and plastic construction keeps fatigue low
• Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use
• Simple operation requires no training or adjustment

There are no installation requirements — the picker is ready to use straight away and stores easily in a cleaning cupboard or on a wall hook. It is worth noting that this is a general-purpose litter tool rather than a heavy-duty industrial grabber; for sites handling large volumes of bulky waste regularly, a more robust option may be worth considering.

Well suited to restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, and contract catering sites where staff carry out regular grounds or area maintenance as part of their cleaning schedule. If you are equipping a larger team or need options at different reach lengths, feel free to get in touch and we can point you in the right direction.

The Rubbermaid BRUTE is a heavy-duty polyethylene waste container widely used in commercial kitchens, food production environments, and back-of-house service areas. At 75.7 litres, it offers a practical mid-to-large capacity that suits busy kitchens where waste accumulates quickly during service and frequent emptying is disruptive to workflow.

In a working kitchen environment, durability and ease of use matter more than any single feature. The BRUTE is constructed from high-quality polyethylene with a UV inhibitor built into the material, meaning it resists fading, warping, cracking, and crushing even under sustained heavy use or outdoor exposure. This is a container built to last in environments that are hard on equipment.

One of its more practical design details is the venting channel system, which allows air to flow between the liner and the container wall. This makes liner removal noticeably easier — the vacuum effect that typically makes pulling out a full bin liner a two-person job is largely eliminated. In a busy kitchen, that is a small but meaningful improvement to routine waste handling.

• Vented channels reduce liner-pull resistance, speeding up waste changeovers
• Polyethylene construction handles knocks, heat exposure, and heavy daily use
• Dark green colour supports colour-coded waste segregation systems
• Smooth interior surfaces make cleaning straightforward between uses
• UV inhibitor protects finish in outdoor or partially covered areas

This container is well suited to kitchens, canteens, food production units, and hospitality back-of-house areas where reliable, no-fuss waste management is needed. For very high-volume sites with larger waste outputs, containers in the 120-litre-plus range may be a better fit.

If you are setting up a colour-coded waste system or need to spec multiple containers across a site, the team is happy to talk through options — just get in touch before you order.

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim Step-On is a foot-operated waste bin constructed in stainless steel, designed for use in commercial kitchens, food preparation areas, and anywhere that hygiene and a compact footprint matter. The pedal mechanism keeps hands free from contact with the lid at all times, which is a straightforward but genuinely useful feature in any environment where cross-contamination risk needs to be minimised.

In day-to-day kitchen use, the stainless steel casing holds up well to the knocks and cleaning routines of a working kitchen. The smooth surfaces are straightforward to wipe down and disinfect, and the construction resists the kind of corrosion that can affect lesser materials over time when exposed to food waste and cleaning chemicals.

Practical advantages of this bin for kitchen and front-of-house environments include:

• Hands-free operation reduces cross-contamination risk during food prep
• Stainless steel finish is easy to clean and disinfect thoroughly
• Slim profile fits into tighter spaces without a significant floor footprint
• Robust construction suitable for continuous use in busy kitchens
• 50-litre capacity reduces the frequency of bag changes during service

The slim rectangular profile is a deliberate design feature rather than a marketing point — it genuinely fits into spaces where a standard round bin would not, such as alongside prep stations, under pass-throughs, or in narrow corridors. No utilities or installation are required; it is a free-standing unit that simply needs a suitable floor position.

This bin is well suited to commercial kitchens, food preparation rooms, hospital catering, school kitchens, and similar environments where hygiene compliance and space efficiency both matter. For higher-volume settings or areas generating greater waste output, a larger-capacity model may be worth considering.

If you are equipping a kitchen and would like to talk through the right waste management setup for your operation, the team is happy to help.

The Brabantia Push Top Bullet Bin is a 60-litre stainless steel waste bin designed for environments where waste accumulates quickly and hygiene standards must be maintained. The push-top mechanism uses a softly sprung access door that opens on contact and closes automatically, helping to contain odours between collections without requiring staff to touch the lid directly.

In a busy kitchen or back-of-house environment, a bin that stays closed matters. Open-top bins allow smells to spread and attract attention during service. The sprung door on this unit keeps the opening closed when not in use, which is a straightforward practical advantage in any food preparation or service area. The wide opening reduces the chance of waste catching the rim, which helps keep the outer surface cleaner over the course of a shift.

At 60 litres, this bin suits moderate to high-volume waste output — appropriate for a working kitchen, a front-of-house area, or a staff facility. The stainless steel construction wipes down easily and holds up well to the daily cleaning routines common in commercial environments. Key practical points include:

• Sprung push-top door keeps waste contained and reduces odour spread
• Wide aperture reduces spillage when disposing of waste at pace
• Stainless steel exterior is easy to wipe down and resistant to surface staining
• Footprint suited to placement in corridors, prep areas, or service stations
• No liner mechanism to maintain — straightforward day-to-day use

The cylindrical profile means it fits neatly into corners or alongside counters without protruding awkwardly. At just under 4.5kg, it is light enough to reposition easily but stable enough not to tip during normal use. No installation is required — it is freestanding and ready to use. Standard bin liners fit the capacity, though a snug fit works best to avoid bunching at the rim.

This bin is well suited to commercial kitchens, hospitality back-of-house areas, hotel corridors, or any professional environment that needs a reliable, presentable waste solution with a reasonable hold capacity. For very high-volume sites generating significantly more waste per shift, a larger-capacity unit may be worth considering.

If you are fitting out a kitchen or front-of-house area and want to talk through the right configuration of waste management for your setup, the team is happy to help.

The Rubbermaid Brute mobile dolly is a wheeled base designed to sit beneath the 75Ltr and 121Ltr Brute waste containers, allowing them to be moved freely around a kitchen or back-of-house area without lifting. Made from polyethylene, it is straightforward in construction and built to handle the day-to-day rigours of a working kitchen environment.

In practice, a full Brute container loaded with waste can be awkward and heavy to shift, particularly at the end of a busy service. The dolly removes that problem by keeping the container mobile throughout the shift, so staff can reposition it as the workflow demands rather than leaving it fixed in one spot. This is particularly useful in kitchens where waste accumulates quickly and the container needs to travel to a collection point or external bin store.

• Keeps heavily loaded containers mobile without manual lifting
• Supports efficient waste routing during and after service
• Reduces strain on staff handling full containers
• Compatible with both the 75Ltr and 121Ltr Brute container sizes
• Polyethylene construction handles commercial kitchen conditions reliably

It is worth noting that the dolly is sold separately from the Brute containers and lids, so you will need to ensure you have the correct container size before ordering. The dolly is not intended for use on uneven or outdoor surfaces, and is best suited to smooth kitchen or storeroom floors where the castors can roll freely.

This dolly suits any operation already using Brute containers that wants to improve waste handling and reduce manual strain on staff. It is a simple addition that makes a practical difference in kitchens where containers are moved regularly. If you are unsure which Brute container size best fits your waste volume, we are happy to talk it through.

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim Mixed Recycling Lid is a polypropylene lid in green, designed to fit both the 60-litre and 87-litre Slim Jim bin range. It identifies a bin as the designated mixed recycling point, helping staff direct waste correctly without confusion at the point of disposal.

In a busy kitchen or front-of-house area, clear waste segregation depends on instant visual recognition. The green colour coding aligns with commonly adopted recycling colour conventions, making it straightforward to build and maintain consistent waste separation habits across a team — particularly useful where staff turnover is high or multiple shifts share the same workspace.

• Colour-coded green for mixed recycling identification
• Compatible with both 60L and 87L Slim Jim bins
• Moulded from durable polypropylene for long-term use
• Lightweight and easy to remove for bin emptying and cleaning
• Supports compliant waste segregation in catering environments

As a lid only, it assumes you already have a compatible Slim Jim bin in place. It does not include a swing aperture or other opening mechanism — waste is deposited by lifting or removing the lid, which is worth considering when positioning bins in self-service or high-traffic areas.

This lid is well suited to kitchens, canteens, hospitality venues, and back-of-house areas looking to formalise a colour-coded waste system using the Slim Jim bin range. If you are setting up waste stations from scratch or need guidance on which bin capacities make sense for your operation, the team is happy to help you put the right combination together.

This 240-litre wheelie bin from Charles Bentley is a straightforward, practical waste container intended for general commercial and operational use. Moulded from high-density polyethylene, it is the standard format used across a wide range of premises — from kitchens and food service sites to warehouses, schools, and hospitality venues — wherever a reliable, large-capacity bin is needed for routine waste collection.

In a catering environment, a bin of this size is commonly positioned in a rear yard, loading bay, or external waste store rather than within the kitchen itself. It handles general waste, cardboard, and non-hazardous packaging well, and the 240-litre capacity is a practical match for medium-volume operations that generate significant daily waste but don't require the step up to a larger 360-litre format.

The polyethylene construction resists UV degradation, frost, and everyday chemical exposure, which matters for bins kept outdoors year-round. Rear-mounted wheels and a moulded handle make it straightforward to move when full, and at 15.5kg empty it is manageable without being flimsy.

• Durable in outdoor conditions — resistant to UV, frost, and chemical contact
• Rear wheels and handle allow easy repositioning when loaded
• Colour-coded blue finish supports waste segregation where required
• Compatible with standard municipal and commercial collection vehicles
• Lightweight enough for one person to manoeuvre safely

The blue colour coding is useful where sites operate a segregated waste system — it helps staff and collection teams identify recycling or specific waste streams at a glance.

If you are unsure whether this size is right for your waste volumes, or need guidance on how many bins to specify for your site, the team is happy to talk it through.

The Rubbermaid Slim Jim is a slim-profile, high-capacity waste bin designed specifically for environments where floor space is limited but waste volumes are significant. The venting channels built into the body allow air to circulate between the liner and the bin wall, which is a practical detail that anyone who has wrestled a vacuum-sealed bin bag out of a full bin will appreciate. At 87 litres, the capacity is substantial enough to handle busy service periods without requiring constant changeovers.

In a working kitchen or front-of-house environment, the Slim Jim earns its place through its narrow footprint. It fits comfortably beside prep stations, behind counters, and in service corridors where a standard round bin simply will not go. The reinforced rim resists crushing under the kind of daily handling that wears cheaper bins out quickly, and the polyethylene construction is straightforward to wipe down and keep clean.

Practical benefits for kitchen operations include:

• Venting channels prevent liner vacuum-lock, making bag changes faster and easier
• Red colouring supports colour-coded waste segregation systems
• Slim profile fits into narrow runs and tight service areas
• Reinforced rim maintains shape under regular heavy use
• Lightweight construction makes repositioning practical during service

No installation is required. The bin is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, though it is most commonly used in kitchens, service areas, and food preparation environments where waste segregation and space efficiency are priorities. For sites generating significantly higher volumes of waste, larger-format bins may be worth considering alongside this model.

If you are building out a colour-coded waste management system or fitting out a kitchen with limited floor space, the team are happy to advise on quantities and configuration to suit your operation.

The Rubbermaid Brute is a heavy-duty polyethylene utility container widely used in commercial kitchens, back-of-house areas, and food service environments for waste collection, bulk storage, and general materials handling. At 37.9 litres, it sits in a practical mid-range capacity that makes it useful across a variety of day-to-day tasks without becoming unwieldy to move or empty.

In a busy kitchen environment, containers like this take considerable punishment — repeated filling, dragging across wet floors, contact with food waste, cleaning chemicals, and frequent handling by multiple staff members. The Brute range has a long-standing reputation for holding up under that kind of daily use. The polyethylene construction resists cracking and is straightforward to clean down at the end of service.

Built-in handles are integrated into the rim design, which makes lifting and tipping more secure even when hands are wet or gloved. Key practical points include:

• Integrated handles for controlled, non-slip lifting
• Compatible with a mobile dolly for easier movement around the kitchen
• Polyethylene construction is resistant to denting, cracking, and common cleaning agents
• Smooth interior walls make cleaning quick and thorough
• Lids available separately for covered waste or storage applications

The container is suitable for use standalone or in combination with the Rubbermaid dolly base and lid accessories, both of which are sold separately. If you intend to use it as a mobile waste station or for transporting bulk ingredients, the dolly is worth considering at the point of purchase to avoid a second order.

This size works well in smaller operations or as a secondary container in larger kitchens. For sites generating higher volumes of waste or needing greater capacity in a single container, a larger format within the Brute range may be more appropriate.
