Decorative Waste Bins

Yes. Customised, on-brand, visible recycling bins can help improve recycling efficiency, reduce cross-contamination and boost engagement. Make them your own with the label customisation tool, add your own text, waste-stream icons, colours and branding. Doing this helps your customers and employees to quickly understand which waste belongs in which bin, helping to cut contamination.

The best material for a public waste bin depends on the strain it will be under. Resin and metal both have a place, and the right choice comes down to traffic levels, location and how much wear the bin will take. For busy indoor areas such as hotel lobbies, retail floors and shopping centres, open top metal bins and metal recycling stations are aesthetically pleasing and built for constant use. Outdoors, outdoor resin bins are made for exposure to the elements. For light traffic areas, metal step-on bins and resin step-on bins give you a choice of finish. Whichever material you choose, look for long warranties that indicate whether a bin is built to last. Our multi-year warranties give you confidence that you have chosen products you can rely on, year after year.

Yes. Decorative waste bins that are designed to look good and perform year after year are worth the investment, and with the right manufacturer you don’t need compromise between function and aesthetics. Cheaper bins can lose their looks and may need frequent replacing, which costs more over time. It may sound obvious, but to get customers recycling, bins need to be where they generate waste. That means front of house, and it means bins that sit neatly in your space without spoiling the look of the room. The Decorative Waste Bins range is for businesses that no longer want to put up with bins that look poor and fail to last. A bin that holds up cuts replacement costs and the disruption of swapping out failed products, so your cost in use stays lower.

Choose bins that look good and work hard, then match the material, colour and labelling to the space. Rubbermaid Commercial Products’ decorative range doesn't compromise aesthetics for function, with polished exteriors, sleek silhouettes and refined colours to suit your environment. Open top metal bins and other metal bins offer different looks for indoor spaces, while outdoor resin bins offer a more refined look for outdoor areas. For recycling, metal recycling stations keep streams together in one tidy footprint. Consider discrete waste stream labels, created with the label customisation tool, keep the setup organised and easy to use without taking over the look of the space.
