Waste Mate Plastic Waste Receptacles

Available in four sizes and red and beige colors, DETECTO’s Waste Mate commercial-grade plastic waste receptacles feature an easy-to-use foot pedal that flips open the lid for no-touch trash disposal. The integrated internal clamps secure the trash bag to the rim of the can to prevent it from slipping into the can. The high-grade, durable plastic is easy to clean and long-lasting. Bags can be replaced in seconds using the integrated bag-securing hinges and quick-replacement design. The soft close lid gently lowers back silently into place. The upper lips are ergonomically designed for comfort while allowing you to easily pick up the trash can and move them. Waste Mate sizes are available ranging from 8 gallons / 30 liters up to 24 gallons / 91 liters. FM approved and USA made.​
