We supply office trash cans and office recycling bins to facility managers, office managers, property managers and dealers outfitting workstations, conference rooms, breakrooms, corridors and lobbies. Capacities run 5, 12, 15, 23, 33, 41 and 48 gallons, so one order covers every room in the building.
Most of what you see here is Glaro, the all-metal receptacle line we distribute, built in the USA from heavy-gauge galvanized steel. We have supplied commercial facilities for more than 15 years and sell direct.
Commercial trash cans in an office get emptied by a custodial team every working day. The metal bodies, removable inner liners and self-closing lids on this page are built around that handling.
Offices need different units in different rooms, and the capacity that works at a desk will overflow by noon in a breakroom. Specify by placement first, then by finish.
An office garbage can in a corridor sees more traffic than the same unit in a private office. Where floor space is the constraint, a half round trash can mounts to the wall with an optional bracket.
Office recycling bins work when the opening tells people what goes in. The Glaro RecyclePro line uses opening shape to sort the stream: a round opening for bottles and cans, a slot for paper, and a large opening for mixed recyclables or waste.
Single-purpose RecyclePro 1 bins handle one stream at a workstation or copy room. For shared spaces, RecyclePro 2 and RecyclePro 3 put two or three streams in one footprint.
A dual trash and recycling bin is the most common breakroom specification we quote. Connected modular stations pair 23 gallon units side by side, and the Deluxe three-unit station runs 48 gallons per stream for entrances and cafeterias.
Colour coding is where these earn their keep in a recycling program. Designer base colours pair with satin aluminum or satin brass lids, and RecyclePro units are offered with a choice of printed message so each opening is labelled at the point of use. Half-round stations handle wall placement.
Glaro bodies are formed from heavy-gauge galvanized steel and finished in high-temperature baked powder coat, textured or smooth, across 27 designer colours. The steel construction resists corrosion, rust and fire.
Lids are hand-spun and satin polished in brass or aluminum, then sealed with a clear powder coat. A sealed, non-rusting aluminum bottom protects the floor underneath, which matters on carpet and finished wood.
Most of these commercial indoor trash cans take a removable plastic inner liner can with a hand grip, so bags never touch the receptacle body and custodial staff can service a unit in one motion.
Liner inclusion varies by model. The WasteMaster Value series lists the inner liner separately; the Mount Everest series includes one. Pair either with Glaro receptacle liners or standard commercial trash bags.
These are made to order in the USA and manufactured with 30% recycled content, and the receptacles themselves are 100% recyclable at end of life. That combination supports sustainability reporting alongside a recycling program.
Standard office trash can sizing follows placement and traffic. When you are specifying trash cans for office floors serviced less than once a day, size up one step from the table below.
| Placement | Typical capacity |
|---|---|
| Desk or workstation | 5 to 15 gallon |
| Conference room, hallway | 12 to 23 gallon |
| Breakroom, copy room | 23 to 41 gallon |
| Lobby, high-traffic entry | 33 to 48 gallon |
Lid choice matters as much as capacity. An open top is fastest to use and easiest to empty, which suits deskside and back-of-house placements. A funnel or canopy top hides contents in a client-facing space.
Tip-action tops are the pick for breakrooms because the lid closes itself and holds odors inside. For a large office trash can in a lobby, the covered formats also keep the unit looking serviced between rounds. Our guide to choosing a commercial waste receptacle covers the specification process in more detail.
We sell these commercial trash cans and recycling receptacles direct as a manufacturer and distributor, without a retail markup layer. Quantity pricing is available on any unit through the Quantity Discount Request on the product page.
Plan around a 14 business day lead time on made-to-order Glaro receptacles, and note that custom-manufactured units are non-cancelable once an order is accepted. For a multi-floor or multi-site rollout, send us the floor count and placement mix and we will build the order around it.
Facility teams buying for offices usually pair this collection with office breakroom supplies and exterior smoking receptacles for entry areas. Request a quote for bulk and multi-location orders.
It depends on placement and traffic. An open-top wastebasket of 5 to 15 gallons works at a workstation. For breakrooms and lobbies, a covered metal receptacle with a tip-action or funnel top handles higher volume and keeps waste out of view.
Deskside cans are typically 5 to 15 gallons. Shared-space and breakroom cans usually run 23 to 41 gallons, and lobby units go up to 48 gallons in a connected station.
The difference is in the opening and the labelling. Recycling bins use a round opening for bottles and cans or a slot for paper, with colour-coded lids and printed messages that identify the stream. Waste units use a large open or covered top.
