ABSTRACT:
A trash container of molded type having a generally rectangular opening and provided with four ears, one at each corner, to support a bag liner with minimal interference during filling and removal. The liner is preferably one of the high-strength plastic bags having incorporated handles, which bags are currently given free-of-charge to grocery store customers for transport of their purchases. In particular, the ears are intended to have the handles looped around them such that the bag's sides hug the container walls, thus assuring that all refuse is captured within the liner bag. To this end, a tip of each ear protrudes beyond and above a rim around the opening, requiring the handles to be stretched over them, and a notch in the exterior of each ear near the container corner lies well below the rim, causing the bag's edges outside the handle area also to be held in desired relation to the walls.
