Why this recycling bin earns its place
HY012 is the yellow 87-litre Slim Jim bin body for waste or recycling points where capacity matters but floor space is tight. It measures 274mm wide by 559mm deep by 762mm high, giving a higher-volume container in the narrow rectangular format the Slim Jim range is known for.
Rubbermaid specifies commercial-grade polyethylene and a reinforced rim that prevents crushing, so this bin is aimed at highly demanding internal or external settings. The supplier-stated gross weight is 3.54kg, which keeps the empty body manageable for cleaning teams while still delivering an 87-litre capacity.
The yellow colour can be used as part of a colour-coded system, helping staff identify the right stream quickly when several bins sit together. For kitchens, schools, care sites and production areas, that simple visual cue can make daily waste routines easier to follow and easier to audit.
