Streamlined Waste Disposal
Rubbermaid Slim Jim trash cans optimize space with their low-profile design. The 11-inch width will hold up to 23 gallons of trash, keeping its footprint narrow enough to fit virtually anywhere. Integrated venting channels reduce the force needed to remove a full liner by as much as 60 percent. Your workers will appreciate the ease with which these liners can be changed.
Can liner cinches help keep liners in place, so you'll save labor by no longer needing to tie knots in can liners. Molded-in handles and grips in the base make lifting and emptying easier. Models with handles will only hold 15-7/8 gallons of trash, but these may be more convenient due to their ease of portability.
