A flange is coupled to and surrounds the outside wall between the upper and lower ends of the outside wall. The flange has an upper flange wall coupled to the outside wall and a lower flange wall spaced from the upper flange wall. The outside wall has alternate inner and outer wall sections spaced from each other and having upper and intermediate ends respectively. The lower flange wall is coupled to the intermediate ends of the outside wall sections of the outside wall. The inner wall sections extend above the flange with their upper ends located below and next to the receptacle wall for providing support for the receptacle wall. Support wall sections are coupled to the lower flange wall and to the upper ends of the inner sections for providing support for the receptacle.
