ABSTRACT:
A receptacle for facilitating separating of recyclable trash includes a container body, flat panels for forming a plurality of adjustable-size separate compartments in the container body, and a single-stage single-level lid hingedly mounted on the container body. Alternatively, the receptacle can have a two-stage bi-level lid and bag retainer assembly which includes a lower annular bag retainer member and an upper cover member. The lower bag retainer member is hinged and releasably matable to the container body for holding and securing an open top edge of trash bags on the container body. The upper cover member is hinged to the lower annular bag retainer member for opening and closing and can have slidable doors to permit access to the separate compartments in the container body and the trash bags held therein. A bag retaining arrangement is mounted on a top rim of the container body and top edges of the compartment separating panels for holding the trash bags in place when the lower annular bag retainer member is released from the mated relation with the container body. A can crusher module is removably mounted to opposing portions of the interior surface of the upper container body portion or of the lower annular bag retainer member so as to overlie one of the separate compartments in the container body.
