Sterilite 10 Gallon Plastic Garbage Bin No Lid White

10 Gallon Open Wastebasket

The Sterilite 10 gallon plastic garbage bin is a lidless wastebasket designed for kitchens, garages and workspaces. Its slim rectangular profile fits flush against walls or cabinets while the polished, textured finish adds a clean, modern look. Durable BPA-free and phthalate-free construction handles daily use and wipes clean easily. Integrated rim handles simplify transport and emptying for busy households or dorm rooms.

Open Top Limits

The open design means odours and debris are not contained, so it suits dry waste or areas where a lid is not required. A standard 13 gallon liner can be used, though the 10 gallon capacity will not fill the bag completely. Without a lid, pets or pests may access contents, and wind can scatter lightweight refuse in garages or covered outdoor spots. The plastic body resists cracking but is not rated for heavy industrial loads or extreme temperatures.

Upgrade From Smaller Bins

This bin replaces smaller desktop or bathroom wastebaskets that overflow quickly in high traffic zones. The jump is worth it when a single 10 gallon container reduces the frequency of emptying compared to multiple small bins. It does not replace a lidded kitchen can for wet or food waste where odour control is needed. Buyers needing hands free operation or a step pedal mechanism should look elsewhere.
