Careful separation and management of waste is a crucial contribution to progress in our journey towards more recycling and a reduction of waste sent to landfill. This 48 litre waste bin is split into 2 equal compartments of 24 litres each each compartment has a durable inner buckets for easy cleaning and the lid lifts off for quick and easy bag changes (on some other bins fitting new bags can be tricky as they are not always compliant they are after all 'refuse' bags). The lid is opened and closed by a hand operated touch bar which is conveniently positioned at the top front of the bin and will stay open for as long as needed. The brushed stainless steel body will look good in any situation and is hygienic and easy to keep clean.
