Types of ShelfGenie’s Custom Made Pull-Out Trash Can Solutions

Even the most well-designed trash can is unsightly when sitting out in your kitchen. In addition to its less-than-appealing look, it can also get a little smelly. ShelfGenie has the perfect storage solution for your trash can dilemma. Our pull-out trash cans can be mounted directly on sliders and hidden within a cabinet so it’s out of sight, which can also help reduce odors.

Pull-out trash cans are just one part of our kitchen storage solutions that are designed to help you enjoy a well-organized kitchen. Not sure what pull-out trash can solution is best for your needs? The information below can help you choose the solution that best meets your needs.

What to Consider When Buying a Trash Bin Cabinet

There are few things to keep in mind when choosing a slide-out trash can for your kitchen. Certain cabinet frames are only designed to handle up to 20 pounds of trash. So, if you have a bigger family or need a larger trash can, other high-capacity options are available. However, if you don’t produce much trash on a daily and weekly basis, a smaller option (20 lb. capacity or less) should do.

It’s also important to choose a trash can that is sturdy enough to handle the volume of items you throw away. Steel or aluminum will be your stronger options, while plastic or other material should be enough to handle most trash items. Finally, if you live in an area that recycles glass, plastic, and cardboard items, consider a trash can option with separate compartments for waste and recycling items. We review how to ensure you choose the right size can below.

Measure Your Cabinet Space

Before buying your pull-out trash can, make sure that you properly measure your trash can cabinet or closet space. This will help you avoid buying a can that is too big or small for the space. Here are the steps to follow:

  • Use a measurement tape to measure the length and width of the interior space.
  • If mounted on a cabinet door, measure the amount of available space (make sure the door can close properly before installation).
  • Mark the areas for installation of the trash can frame.

Transform your kitchen into one of the most well-organized rooms in your home with ShelfGenie's custom pull-out trash can, pantry solutions, and pull-out pantry shelves. Then you’ll have a place for everything, and everything in its place.

  • Trash and Recycling Cabinet.

    A Dedicated Trash And Recycling Cabinet

    Whether you love recycling or have strict recycling laws, having a dedicated cabinet makes things easier. Especially if you have a big family or you host often.

    Compost or Instant Glow

    I’d love to have a separate small compost bin for food waste. To use as fertilizer or to reuse fruit and veg scraps for beauty treatments for that instant glow. Zero waste and savings on beauty products.

    ShelfGenie has a few interesting options to make this all possible. I share more on the different types and benefits of ShelfGenie Trash solutions, below.

  • Double-Height Pull-Outs.

    Double Height Glide-Out Shelf With Front Riser

    The double-height glide-out gives you more freedom to organize your cabinet. You can use the front built-in riser to store a small compost bin, bin liners, a dustpan, and more.

    You could also use this option in your bathroom if you have extra cabinet space. The riser would be perfect to store a small sanitary bin.

  • Triple Height Glide-Out Shelf With Trash And Recycling Kit

    The triple-height glide-out shelf is an ideal option for your kitchen. You can have the bins sitting in the drawers or you can have cut-outs to insert the bins into. Both options provide a sturdy solution.

    Linen Storage

    You could also insert wicker baskets into your customized Glide-Out drawers to store your linen.

  • Slope shelves.

    Reverse Sloped Storage

    The reverse sloped storage is suitable for pain points, like under-your-sink. It’s ideal for your bathroom, especially if you only have an under-the-sink cabinet.

    Great experience! They delivered the drawers ahead of schedule and they look amazing. They were able to complete the cabinets we were promised by another contractor but weren’t finished.

    Exceptional Service & Quality Installation — Highly Recommend ShelfGenie! From the very first interaction, Helen Roselli and Mauricio Huertas made this entire experience seamless and stress-free. Helen was fantastic as our sales representative — knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely focused on finding the right solution for our specific needs rather than just making a sale. She took the time to understand our space and helped us maximize every inch of storage. Mauricio’s installation work speaks for itself. The sliding shelves throughout our kitchen cabinetry and pantry are beautifully crafted and incredibly functional. What really impressed us was the modification to our pantry door and cabinetry — he worked with what we had and transformed it into a space that now holds significantly more than we ever thought possible. The attention to detail and craftsmanship are evident in every shelf. Beyond the quality of the product, what stood out most was the integrity and professionalism both Helen and Mauricio brought to the entire process. They showed up on time, communicated clearly, and left everything clean and perfect. If you’re on the fence about ShelfGenie, look no further. The glide-out shelves have completely transformed the way we use our kitchen. Everything is now easily accessible — from our cookware and appliances to pantry staples and food storage containers. It’s one of the best home investments we’ve made. Thank you, Helen and Mauricio — you’ve earned a customer for life!
