Continental Commercial, Swingline, 25gal, Plastic, Brown, Square, Receptacle

The Continental Swingline waste receptacle is a square, LLDPE trash can with a rolled rim that provides extra strength and offers a finger hold for lifting, and it has a reinforced base for added durability. LLDPE (linear low-density polyethylene) resists chipping, cracking, denting, warping, and UV damage better than LDPE (low-density polyethylene). The trash can is nestable for compact storage, and it offers 25% more capacity than round containers of the same height and width, allowing it to be emptied less frequently. The can is compatible with a variety of lids (sold separately), including swing-top, tip-top, and drop-top styles.

Trash cans are used for the disposal and temporary storage of garbage. They are typically made of plastic or metal and sometimes have a top or lid to contain odors and waste. Certain garbage cans meet Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements for the disposal of medical waste or National Sanitation Foundation/American National Standards Institute (NSF/ANSI) requirements for food handling and processing. Others include a lock to prevent unauthorized access, safeguard confidential materials, and comply with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requirements. Waste bins can also be color-coded to facilitate the separation of recyclable waste, such as bottles, cans, paper, and general refuse. Ash/trash cans typically include an ash tray on top for cigarette disposal. Trash cans are used in virtually all commercial and industrial environments.
