The present invention discloses a system and method for trash storage and disposal located above and below the surface. The trash storage and disposal system comprises an underground concrete receptacle liner or box, a polyethylene trash storage bucket that sits sub-base in the concrete liner or box with a hook capacity to permit the trash storage bucket to be lifted out of the concrete liner for disposal, a metal ring for a winch connection and the crane to attach from the garbage truck to remove trash from the storage bucket; a spray system provided inside the polyethylene trash storage bucket sprays a peppermint and/or other rodent deterrent and odor repellent and a cover or lid seals the polyethylene trash storage bucket. The cover or lid has a chute style, chimney flue above the ground and the chute style, chimney flue has a lid for dumping refuse by people.

Implementations of a waste receptacle are provided. The waste receptacle is an outdoor container configured to temporarily store dog waste, in particular, disposable plastic bags containing dog waste. In some implementations, the waste receptacle is configured to hold a trash bag so that it can be easily filled with dog waste and/or other refuse. In some implementations, the waste receptacle comprises a body, a trash chute member having a hinged cover that provides selective access to the interior of the body, a lid configured to cover the trash chute member, and a keeper configured to secure the mouth of a trash bag about a conduit extending from the bottom side of the trash chute member. In some implementations, the waste receptacle may further comprise a foot pedal that is operably coupled to the lid. In this way, the lid can be opened by stepping on the foot pedal.

The subject matter discloses a trash bin device, comprising a first trash bin having a first hollow body, an aperture to the first hollow body, a first lid configured to close the aperture, said lid is connected to an axis connected to the first trash bin and moves in a rotational manner along said axis, a first pedal located in the vicinity of a lower portion of the first trash bin, said first pedal moves when pressed on, a raising mechanism configured to transfer movement of the first pedal to movement of the first lid along the axis, such that pressing on the first pedal results in raising the first lid and enabling inserting an article to the first hollow body. The pedal may be connected to an arm mechanism, a cord mechanism or an electrical mechanism for raising the lid.

A lid opener for interconnection with a waste container with a handle and a lid the lid opener is provided with a lever dimensioned to pivotally couple with the handle. The lid opener is further provided with a cord coupled with a force portion of the lever. A load portion of the lever is dimensioned to extend underneath the lid, whereby downward force applied to the cord causes the lever to pivot about the handle and open the lid.

A garbage bin with filter case includes a barrel, a lid, and a filter case assembly. The barrel has a receiving space and an opening at the top. The lid is pivotally disposed on the top of the barrel to selectively close the opening. The lid has a bottom face facing the receiving space. The filter case assembly includes a case and a connecting mount. The case is fixed to the lid via the connecting mount so that the case is separated from the bottom face of the lid to form a gap between the case and the lid. The case encloses a filter room therein for receiving a filter and has plural through holes formed on at least a face opposite to the bottom face of the lid and a face facing the bottom face of the lid. The through holes communicate the filter room.

Device for arranging and holding therein contaminated objects, particularly contaminated objects such as contaminated nappies. The device includes a container and a lid. The lid includes a hollow tube, open on at least an outer end, in which a body is arranged in reciprocally movable manner. The lid can pivot relative to the container between a first position, in which an object can be arranged in the tube from the outside, and a second position, in which the body can move downward in the tube under the influence of the force of gravity in order to push the object into the container. The device further includes a pedal and a releasing device, where the releasing device pivots the lid from the second position to the first position during a displacement of the pedal due to a pedal force exerted on the pedal.

Containers are described which can accommodate a variety of flexible bag assemblies used for containing waste. Internal accommodating structures are designed to accommodate and secure various types of bag assemblies, including single bag assemblies and cassettes.

A trash with an auto lid locking mechanism is designed to prevent accidental or unwanted exposure to waste and potentially hazardous material by humans, household pets and stray animals. In some embodiments, the lid of the trash can opens only when a force is continuously applied to the foot pedal of the trach can, and the lid automatically closes and locks when the force on foot pedal discontinues. In some embodiments, the trash can has an internal pulling force for the lid and does not rely on the weight (i.e., gravitational force) of the lid for it to close, thus the lid can still close automatically or remain closed even if the trash can is being knocked down and/or not in an upright position. In some embodiments, the foot pedal recesses and conceals within the trash can body, thereby making it more difficult for animals to step or continuously press on the pedal.

A trash can includes a lid assembly including a lid and a retainer rim and a transition arrangement coupled with the lid assembly that enables the lid to be selectively transited between a normal state and a transition state. In the normal state, the lid is operable between an open state and a close state through a foot pedal. When the lid is pivotally lifted up to have an included angle larger than 90 degrees from the retainer rim, the lid is in the transition state that would not fall back toward the retainer rim and the retainer rim is able to be lifted up to rest on said lid for replacing trash bag until the retainer rim is moved back to site on an upper edge of a shell of the trash can.

A storage receptacle can include a storage bin and a pedal mounted to the receptacle as well as a hopper. A method of using the storage receptacle can include receiving a force on a hopper handle of a hopper of a storage receptacle, the hopper having a cable connection point connected to a cable, based on the force, rotating the hopper to enable a user to place material in a storage bin of the storage receptacle, wherein the rotating causes the cable to have slack and preventing the cable having the slack from coming out of a groove in a pulley via a shroud positioned over at least a portion of the pulley.
