ABSTRACT:
A novel and ergonomic trash receptacle comprises an outer container and an inner trash can. The outer container which is mounted on a pedestal is provided with a lockable closure with the trash can being received in the container such that garbage introduced through the doors of the closure falls into the trash can. Vertical side wall assemblies are removably mounted to the container by way of extruded posts provided at the corners of the container and adapted to slidably receive the side wall assemblies. Each side wall assembly can comprise an advertisement which can be accessed, for instance, to change the advertisement or for repair purposes. The outer container or the closure can be provided with ashtrays which can discharge their contents into conduits defined in the extruded posts such as to deposit at the bottom thereof. Doors are provided to access the conduits for periodically removing the ashes and butts which have accumulated in the posts. Frame components of the outer container, i.e. the posts and cross-members, have easily removable facade sub-components for facilitating the replacement thereof, when damaged. The trash can may define multiple compartments for separately receiving, for instance, recyclable and non-recyclable items with the closure having distinct and identified doors for each compartment.
