This includes a great range of high quality waste bins including hide away bins, under sink bins, freestanding bins and more.  

Types of waste bins

Hide away bins

Hide away bins do exactly what the name implies – a practical solution that slides away inside your kitchen or laundry cabinet and is hidden from sight until needed.

Under sink bins

For small kitchens where utilising space is even more important, the under sink bin is a very popular option in Canada. This is a smaller bin located under and within the sink cabinet.

Freestanding bins

Maybe your kitchen cabinets are all occupied, or your space is better suited to accommodating a freestanding bin. Either way, there are various pedal-action-operated bins to suit your requirements.

Sensor bins

Motion sensor bins are designed to open when your hand approaches the lid and close after the disposal of the rubbish, meaning you dispose of waste without touching the bin. This style of bin is usually freestanding but can be incorporated into cabinetry.

The advantages of high-quality waste bins

Waste bins are a small but important part of your home, with rubbish bins being crucial for hygiene and organisation in a kitchen. With that in mind, it’s important to choose a bin system that is simple, high-quality, and easy to use. ArchiPro provides a great selection of waste solutions sourced from all over Canada so that your everyday rubbish and recycling routine can be as effortless as possible. High quality solutions are thoughtfully designed, packed with innovative features and made with the finest materials.

How to choose the waste bin that is right for you

The right choice of waste bin depends on the style of kitchen and laundry that you have and the amount of rubbish and recycling that you produce. Your lifestyle dictates how you should go about choosing your bin – if you are a large family, then the higher capacity bin makes sense. If you dine out a lot and live in a compact apartment, you can likely make do with a smaller under sink bin. For any bin that is visible, aesthetics become a very important part of the decision making process. Many homeowners in Canada choose to match a bin’s material with other finishes in the kitchen or laundry with respect to tapware and sinks.

What size waste bin do I need for the kitchen?

Again, it comes down to your lifestyle and living arrangements. A small household of one or two people may require a 35 litre bin, while an average household of two to four people should consider a size between 35 and 100 litres. A large family or household (over four people) may opt for a bin upwards of 100 litres.

Where do you put the bin in a small kitchen?

A small kitchen requires smart choices when it comes to locating your appliances – and the rubbish bin is no exception. Many people with smaller kitchens opt for under sink rubbish bins or slide-out and pull-out rubbish bins, options that make the most of pre-existing cabinet space.

How do I store my kitchen rubbish bins?

Usually, the most suitable place for a kitchen bin in homes in Canada is somewhere easily accessible but near enough to the exit to ensure that taking it out is easy. We tend to keep bins away from our pantries and counters for hygiene reasons, which is why many people opt to tuck them out of sight completely under sinks or concealed within cabinets. If this isn’t possible in your space, then a freestanding bin near the kitchen exit is a good choice.
