Category List
Kitchen bins are essential waste containers, helping to keep areas clean, hygienic and organised. We recommend compact bins with a capacity of 30 litres or less for small households, 35-50 litre bins for households of 3-4 people, and more than 50 litres for large families or commercial kitchens. It is also important to consider the size of your space, with slimline kitchen bins ideal for small kitchens or beside integrated appliances.
With over 40 years’ experience sourcing waste and recycling bins, our buying team offers a wide range of designs suited to a variety of kitchens. Some people prefer push-top bins, others choose pedal bins for hands-free opening, and sensor models remain popular for their touch-free convenience.
Managing waste and recycling effectively can help households and workplaces support UK recycling initiatives and local council collection schemes. Depending on the size of your kitchen you may need more than one kitchen bin, or you may prefer a multi-compartment bin, which is becoming increasingly popular to help separate recyclable materials from general waste.
Kitchen caddies help households separate food waste ready for local council collections, while also supporting workplace recycling requirements such as Simpler Recycling in England. We are rated Excellent on Trustpilot and have supplied bins to households, businesses and public sector organisations for more than 20 years.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pedal bins are a great choice when it comes to kitchen bins, they help reduce touch points, improving hygiene while also keeping the bin clean. They help to keep smells inside of the bin.
However, a lifting lid is also a contender, it provides an option to keep any smells inside of the bin and with proper maintenance will be as hygienic as a pedal bin and will often last longer.
Although it is personal choice, we recommend keeping your kitchen bin in an accessible place, near to the exit. This makes emptying the bin and taking it outside easier.
Be careful to keep it away from food preparation and cooking zones, as splashes of meat or sauce can contaminate recycling and increase smells.
We are based in the glorious Cotswolds and hold over 20 years of experience supplying and manufacturing bins to domestic, trade and public sectors. The litter bins we sell are good value without compromising on quality.
