A vacuum channel trash receptacle for easy removal of trash bags. The vacuum channel trash receptacle includes an inner surface; an outer surface and at least one vacuum channel. The vacuum channels are molded into the design of the internal and are on the external surface and top of the trash receptacle and made of material same as the trash receptacle. This allows air to flow down the length of the trash receptacle relieving the vacuum created by the liner bag and inner and bottom walls of the receptacle.

A garbage bag retaining clip apparatus for securing garbage bag excess includes a housing having an open front side separated from an open back side, a top side separated from an open bottom side, and a left side separated from a right side defining a housing inside. A bag gate is flexibly coupled within the housing inside. The bag gate is biased to rest in the pinch position. A plurality of parallel retaining ridges is coupled to the housing. Each of the retaining ridges extends vertically from the right side and the left side within the housing inside. A tab is coupled to the housing. The tab proximal end has a hinge extending between the left side and the right side proximal the top side and the back side. The tab moves between a locked position engaged within the retaining ridges and a released position extending behind the housing.

The present invention is an improved trash receptacle comprising a frame which houses an inner bin. The inner bin has an open bottom covered by a storage tray and a bin tray that can slide out from an opening in a front of the trash receptacle for ease of cleaning. The storage tray stores replacement trash bags that can be pulled out of an opening in a center of the bin tray. The bin tray has raised edges as well as the opening which has a raised lip encircling the opening, which prevents any spillage from a trash bag lining the inner bin to spill into the storage container. The trash receptacle also comprises a halo lid which seals a top of the trash bag lining the inner bin to prevent slipping of the liner.

An animal waste containment assembly includes a container that is positioned outdoors to be accessible to people walking their pets. A drawer is slidably integrated into the container and the drawer supports a garbage bag for collecting animal waste that is deposited in the container. A lid is hingedly coupled to the container and the lid covers the opening in the container when the lid is positioned in a closed position. A deodorizer dispenser is disposed on the lid to dispense a measured amount of the chemical deodorant when the lid is opened. A foot pedal is movably disposed in the container and a linkage is movably coupled between the foot pedal and the lid. The lid is urged into the open position when the foot pedal is stepped upon to facilitate the person to deposit the bagged animal waste into the container.
