Office wastebaskets are shorter than trash cans, so they fit under a desk or table to keep them out of aisles and walkways. Their slim shape helps maximize foot space under desks while still providing a receptacle for trash.Plastic utility trash cans are constructed of heavy-duty plastic that resists fading, cracking, and denting. They are lighter and more dent-resistant than metal cans, which makes them easier to move and handle. These plastic trash cans are used for back-of-house applications where heavy-duty construction is more important than styling, including kitchens, waste processing, and cleaning areas. They can be used to collect and contain waste with or without trash bags.
