Will the recycling bin fit something like a plastic gallon milk jug?

I bought the garbage can for my son for Christmas so I emailed him for the measurements of the openings but I know he is busy this evening so I haven't heard from him yet, but from my observation you would be able to put a gallon milk container in the larger opening without crushing it, but you may have to crush it to use the other opening. Either side can be used for recycling. When you step on the peddle to open the lid both sides are exposed. If you have more items to recycle than garbage you can use the larger opening, or vice versa. He also highly recommends the garbage can. He thinks it's great.

Yes, if you flatten the empty jug, it will fit without a problem. Unflattened 2-quart containers fit without a problem.

Yes, a few of them too. OOPS! I forgot that I switched sides. I use the trash side (left) for recycling and the smaller side (right) for garbage.

The plastic gallon milk jug will just fit, and will fit better if you crush it first.

If you smash it, it will fit but it will take a lot space. We use the larger side for recycle as I see a lot of people are doing.

I just used one I had that was on wheels. Mine was rectangular and a brown one. I think a round one would work just a little better as far as the bag fitting on the top of the trash can.

Yes. The tops of the larger trash cans are roughly the same size, so it will fit around the top nicely.I have a 60 gal. square top bin, and there is very little that escapes out from under the cover.

No! But you can use any plastic bin. I keep my grand kids' in our family room coffee table drawer.

No, those would be too wide and tall. It comes with custom bags from simplehuman that fit the can perfectly. I believe the average plastic grocery bag would work however.

If you have the old bin, measure it at the top length and width, and don't forget the total heigth, so it can fit into the cabinet. All of the box store trash cans were too tall for our cabinet. I'm thinking that would be the most critical measurement.

Yes, I believe a plastic grocery bag is big enough to fit this step can. The inside compartment comes out and you can fit you plastic grocery bag then put the compartment back in without much of the plastic showing.

I recycle plastic grocery bags. If I had to buy something to fit, I would use any kind of small but durable trash bag.

Your bin is slender for its height. The bag will fit quite loosely but is certainly workable because of the height of the bin. (And your 8 gallon bin is too tall for the 8 gallon bags that fit shorter bins or large wastebaskets.)

I don't think so; this is a very sleek looking waste basket. I got it in brown and it does not look plastic; fits in snug spaces. Good luck

I believe, depending on the size of the trash can that you should be able to fit (with the shelf removed) a small trash can.

Just the top is 6" deep. 1 gallon milk jugs fit in with no problem in fact I haven't found anything that doesn't fit.

TOTALLY big enough for recycling. Keep in mind the inside is fabric, and so is the bottom. So if you are going to use it for that, you will need a liner or wash and dry stuff before putting it in there.

I don't know! I use the bags in my small trash bins and never need to recycle...sorry! But probably not, as there is no large opening, or lid...

Only if your gallon bottle has a regular sized canning opening. I hope this helps. It does not fit my small opening on our gallon jug.

We have the "storage" household essential bins. They are collapsible. Not sure if all styles/sizes are.

I use a 13 gal plastic 2X2 bag. It is a little big but I wrap it over the inside handle....not perfect but I love having a recycle "bin" next to the garbage.
