Even the most well-designed trash can is unsightly when sitting out in your kitchen. In addition to its less-than-appealing look, it can also get a little smelly. ShelfGenie has the perfect storage solution for your trash can dilemma. Our pull-out trash cans can be mounted directly on sliders and hidden within a cabinet so it’s out of sight, which can also help reduce odors.
Pull-out trash cans are just one part of our kitchen storage solutions that are designed to help you enjoy a well-organized kitchen. Not sure what pull-out trash can solution is best for your needs? The information below can help you choose the solution that best meets your needs.
There are few things to keep in mind when choosing a slide-out trash can for your kitchen. Certain cabinet frames are only designed to handle up to 20 pounds of trash. So, if you have a bigger family or need a larger trash can, other high-capacity options are available. However, if you don’t produce much trash on a daily and weekly basis, a smaller option (20 lb. capacity or less) should do.
It’s also important to choose a trash can that is sturdy enough to handle the volume of items you throw away. Steel or aluminum will be your stronger options, while plastic or other material should be enough to handle most trash items. Finally, if you live in an area that recycles glass, plastic, and cardboard items, consider a trash can option with separate compartments for waste and recycling items. We review how to ensure you choose the right size can below.
Before buying your pull-out trash can, make sure that you properly measure your trash can cabinet or closet space. This will help you avoid buying a can that is too big or small for the space. Here are the steps to follow:
Transform your kitchen into one of the most well-organized rooms in your home with ShelfGenie's custom pull-out trash can, pantry solutions, and glide-out shelves. Then you’ll have a place for everything, and everything in its place.

Want a small change that can make a huge difference? Keep it hidden
Classy and clean, that’s how I would like my kitchen or bathroom. So, a pull-out trash can is number one on my must-have list.
I’ve definitely dealt with my fair share of trying to keep guests from entering my kitchen or my dog from ransacking my kitchen bin. The site of the bin always seems to make a room less inviting.

Whether you love recycling or have strict recycling laws, having a dedicated cabinet makes things easier. Especially if you have a big family or you host often.
Compost or Instant Glow
I’d love to have a separate small compost bin for food waste. To use as fertilizer or to reuse fruit and veg scraps for beauty treatments for that instant glow. Zero waste and savings on beauty products.
ShelfGenie has a few interesting options to make this all possible. I share more on the different types and benefits of ShelfGenie Trash solutions, below.

The double-height glide-out gives you more freedom to organize your cabinet. You can use the front built-in riser to store a small compost bin, bin liners, a dustpan, and more.
You could also use this option in your bathroom if you have extra cabinet space. The riser would be perfect to store a small sanitary bin.
The triple-height glide-out shelf is an ideal option for your kitchen. You can have the bins sitting in the drawers or you can have cut-outs to insert the bins into. Both options provide a sturdy solution.
Linen Storage
You could also insert wicker baskets into your customized Glide-Out drawers to store your linen.
The reverse sloped storage is suitable for pain points, like under-your-sink. It’s ideal for your bathroom, especially if you only have an under-the-sink cabinet.
