New Refuse & Utility Bins From Rubbermaid Offer High Capacity With High Style

Winchester, Va. (December 10, 2001) – Rubbermaid Commercial Products (RCP) introduces Refuse and Utility Bins that have been redesigned to boost efficiency while blending with any décor. Featuring sleek contours and smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces, the new bins can accessorize with 17 different Rubbermaid® carts already on the market.

Developed with productivity in mind, larger capacity bins reduce the number of trips required to complete a task. The generous four-gallon Refuse Bin and the eight-gallon Utility Bin have 75% larger openings for faster, easier filling and emptying. Ergonomically-designed handles are molded in to facilitate lifting.

Styled to complement any hospitality or foodservice environment, these versatile new bins also get the job done in institutional and industrial settings. Their larger capacity accommodates cleaning and mini-bar supplies, hand tools, electrical wire and other materials.
