A cassette for disposing waste is provided having a variable cross-sectional geometry. The cross-sectional geometry varies at least at two locations around the periphery of the cassette such that a first maximum height at a first location is different than a second maximum height at a second different location, and the first maximum width at a first location is different than a second maximum width at a second location.

A receptacle comprising a container and a lid is disclosed. The container may include one or more walls and a pair of gussets extending from a top end of the container, wherein each of the pair of gussets includes a cavity facing an opposing gusset of the pair of the gussets. The lid may include a pair of hinge components, each of the pair of hinge components including a pivot pin and a stop pin, the lid being hingedly coupled to the container via a coupling of the hinge components and the pair of gussets. Further, the stop pin of each of the pair of hinge components may be configured to contact the corresponding gusset when the lid is opened to a predetermined angle and prevent the lid from opening beyond the predetermined angle.

A multifunction receptacle is described which features different combinations of lids and/or accessories. Lids are configurable to permit the user to close the open top end of the multifunction receptacle while providing decorative or utilitarian features on the lid.
