Client has rejected anything from a toilet accessory company, rejected one from Mockett. I searched 4Specs but came up snake eyes. Someone out there who does commercial interiors may have a source, even if it is from Europe. Thanks, Wayne Liz O'Sullivan Senior Member Username: liz_osullivan Post Number: 143 Registered: 10-2011 Posted on Friday, April 25, 2014 - 03:57 pm:    http://www.amazonsupply.com/rubbermaid-commercial-44-gallon-garbage-diameter/dp/B0010B9LXA It's Friday.

Exterior stuff, but definitely tasteful Wayne Yancey Senior Member Username: wayne_yancey Post Number: 644 Registered: 01-2008 Posted on Friday, April 25, 2014 - 04:05 pm:    Liz, Very funny. Thanks. Does it come in other shades of yellow such as shit brindle? Can is say the bank name instead of BRUTE? Made my afternoon.

Will get legs and walk out of bank.

It might be appealing to your client because it probably is special order, probably has a long lead time and probably is expensive. (Looks like a Scandinavian company.) You'd have to make your own recess. G.

Both had their jaws wide open so it was easy to toss your hot dog wrappers, etc. in the barrel. They weren't semi-recessed but certainly too large to conveniently walk off with. If that's not tasteful enough I suggest one modeled after a cast iron coin bank I possess. When you place a coin in Uncle Sam's hand his arm swings up and pops the coin into his mouth. I sit it on my desk when I prepare my income tax return. :-) George A.

Thanks, now I can't get Charlie the Tuna out of my mind. There is a difference between good taste, and tastes good. Time for a Friday afternoon beer? George A.

Wayne spiper (Unregistered Guest) Unregistered guest Posted on Friday, April 25, 2014 - 04:28 pm:    Not sure just what is on the other side of the wall from the ATM vestibule but I have seen some similar installations where they simply put a hole in the wall and inserted something that looked just like a mail slot. Instead of LETTERS being printed on the slot it says TRASH. Then you can place Liz's can on the other side of the wall if you want to. Best of both worlds if you ask me.

Could be ANYTHING you (or client) can "imagine"/want it to be! Liz O'Sullivan Senior Member Username: liz_osullivan Post Number: 145 Registered: 10-2011 Posted on Sunday, April 27, 2014 - 04:44 pm:    Sounds like a wasteful taste basket to me.

Brian Payne, AIA Senior Member Username: brian_payne Post Number: 39 Registered: 01-2014 Posted on Monday, April 28, 2014 - 08:23 pm:    There is a "standard" waste basket with liner that is removable.
