What are the three types of trash cans?

The first type is open-top trash cans. These are simple containers without lids for high-traffic areas. The second type is a step-on version, featuring a foot-operated lid for hands-free use in kitchens and bathrooms. The third type has a swing top. This swinging lid allows easy access while keeping contents concealed, which is commonly used in dining areas.

What is the best material for a commercial trash can?

The best materials for commercial trash cans are plastic and stainless steel, depending on your needs, budget, and preferences. Plastic is lightweight, durable, and easy to clean, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Stainless steel is highly durable, resistant to corrosion, and has a sleek appearance, so it's a great choice for upscale environments.

How heavy are commercial trash cans?

The weight of commercial trash cans varies depending on their size, material, and design. Plastic trash cans typically weigh between 5 to 20 pounds when empty, while metal or stainless-steel cans can weigh 15 to 40 pounds or more. Larger outdoor containers can weigh up to 50 pounds or more. It's important to consider empty and full weights when selecting a trash can for your needs.
