System and method of managing waste at waste transfer stations. Open faced bins allow human entry for sorting, segregation or quarantining waste before it is moved to or mixed with bulk waste stations. Bins are located in covered or uncovered bays located away from waste stations. Stops and guides for precise and safe placement of bins in bays are provided. Bins have quick hitch connection points. To collect, store and redirect leachates in bins, a liquid capture zone and drain hole is provided. Bay design prevents public access to machine areas and adjacent bays.

A garbage can has a container having a lid moveable between a closed position and an open position and a suction motor having a suction motor inlet end in air flow communication with the interior volume of the container and a suction motor outlet end in air flow communication with the ambient exterior to the container.

An extender formed from at least one flat piece of material that has straight edges, that includes a body structure formed by attaching a first edge of the at least one flat piece of material to a second, opposing edge thereof. The body structure includes a wall defining an interior space extending therethrough and at least one dynamic portion configured to be manipulated to create a first fold portion and a second fold portion that inwardly extend into the interior space. The body structure is configured to be inserted into a garbage can to extend a capacity of the garbage can. As the body structure is further inserted into the garbage can, the at least one dynamic portion facilitates a change in shape of the wall so that at least a portion of the wall becomes more tapered the further the body structure is inserted into the garbage can.
