Black Trash Cans & Recycling Bins

While shopping for a trash can may seem like an easy task, there are actually a few factors that go into choosing the best product for your disposal needs. You should consider things like if it will be located inside or outside, whether it’s going to be used for personal, professional or industrial purposes, if it needs to be capable of recycling or composting and more.

No matter how you’re planning on using it, it is an investment that will make your waste disposal easier. Staples has black trash cans for the home office or kitchen as well as larger options suited to more industrial environments. Let’s dive into some of the different types of black trash bins below.

What Types of Black Trash Cans Are There?

Not all trash cans are created equal and there are many different types available. The key is finding a style that will fit the needs of your home or workspace. Some are primarily suitable for outdoor use and contain features to dispose of cigarette waste. Others are meant to be used for composting in tandem with compostable trash bags, so that you can responsibly discard your organic waste.

Staples also has many options for recycling trash bags that are suitable for disposing of paper, cans, plastic, and other reusable materials. For added efficiency, there are many black trash cans that have two compartments for recycling and waste.

What Size Black Garbage Cans are Available?

Black trash cans come in a variety of different shapes and sizes depending on how big your office or home is. Some options hold as little as 1 gallon while others can contain 50 gallons or more. If you plan to purchase one that is round in shape, it is also important to take its diameter into consideration. Some black garbage cans are 9” in diameter, which are more suited for small trash bags, while others go up to 26” and have added carrying capacity for shared spaces.

What are the Features of a Black Trash Can?

Black trash cans feature a plethora of useful features to ensure cleanliness and improve accessibility. First, there are different options that are made out of hard plastic or stainless steel for added durability. In addition, most of them also have lids to prevent odors from overpowering the room.

To reduce contact, many also feature touchless sensors or step pedals. These are perfect for bathroom use after employees have cleaned their hands with gel hand sanitizer or hand soap.
