ABSTRACT:
An extended-life trash receptacle includes walls forming a body having an open bottom. A replaceable bottom is adapted to fit within the body. The walls include flanges or other support means on their lower peripheries for supporting the replaceable bottom, and retaining strips or other retaining means for holding the replaceable bottom on the support means. The replaceable bottom is preferably made of plastic, Fiberglas, hard robber, aluminum, or other suitable strong, durable, tough, non-rusting, non-corroding, and relatively chemical-impervious material. If the replaceable bottom becomes worn, punctured, or otherwise damaged in use, it can be quickly and easily replaced by removing the retaining means and lifting the bottom out of the body. A new replaceable bottom can then be dropped into place in the body, and the retaining means reinstalled. The trash receptacle can then be returned to service, thus extending its useful life.
