My husband was distracted on trash day and accidentally threw away not only the recycling trash, but also the container for it. What?! And guess what, it's not an automatic thing to find a replacement when you have a built in space that holds two containers. Thankfully, the other one had a model number stamped onto the bottom. That enabled me to shop for the correct size replacement without having to take measurements and guess at the right can.This took more than a couple of days to arrive, but once it did, it fit perfectly into the bin holder, which was a win. Am guessing that my husband won't make that particular mistake again, since it wasn't a quick fix situation. You can't just run to a local store to find the replacement, either.This size takes 13-gallon trash bags as the perfect size for lining. We had the original one in service for 12 years, so I'd say it's quite sturdy.
