Product Description
This 240-litre wheelie bin from Charles Bentley is a straightforward, heavy-duty waste container made from polyethylene. The yellow colour makes it well suited to colour-coded waste segregation systems, which are commonly used in commercial kitchens, food production sites and hospitality premises to separate general waste, recycling or specific waste streams at a glance.
In practice, a 240-litre bin handles the waste output of a moderately busy kitchen or back-of-house service area without needing to be emptied constantly during a shift. The rear-mounted wheels allow it to be moved even when fully loaded, which is useful when repositioning between prep areas, loading bays or external storage. The polyethylene construction resists knocks, chemical exposure, frost and UV degradation, so it holds up well in outdoor yard areas or unheated stores.
- Colour-coded yellow supports waste segregation compliance
- Rear wheels allow easy relocation when fully laden
- Resistant to chemicals, frost and UV exposure for outdoor use
- Durable polyethylene construction withstands everyday commercial use
- Lid keeps waste contained and reduces odour in service areas
It is worth considering how many bins your site requires based on waste volume and collection frequency. A single 240-litre bin may be sufficient for a small café or pub kitchen, while larger operations or sites with infrequent collections will typically need several. If your operation generates significantly higher waste volumes, a larger-capacity bin may be more practical.
If you are setting up a waste management system across a larger site or need guidance on matching bin capacity to your collection schedule, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- For a small to medium operation — a café, pub kitchen or small restaurant — a 240-litre bin is typically adequate when collections happen two or three times per week. Higher-volume kitchens or sites with less frequent collections may find they need multiple bins or a larger-capacity option to avoid overflow between collections.
- Yellow is commonly used in commercial and healthcare waste systems to denote specific waste streams, though the exact category can vary by operator or local authority scheme. It is worth confirming which colour corresponds to which waste type under your own waste management policy before assigning bins to a stream.
- Yes. The polyethylene material is resistant to frost, UV exposure and common cleaning chemicals, making it suitable for permanent outdoor use in yard areas or external waste stores. The construction is designed to handle the temperature variation and general wear typical of commercial back-of-house environments.
