Not every room needs a kitchen-sized dustbin. Bathrooms, bedrooms and home offices usually benefit from compact bins that are easy to position, unobtrusive and quick to empty.
Bathroom bins
Compact 4L and 5L bins are often appropriate for washrooms. Options include the Brabantia BO 4L White and NewIcon 5L pedal bin.
Bedroom bins
A 7L bin gives a little more capacity without becoming visually dominant. The Brabantia BO 7L Platinum is one example.
Home-office bins
For paper, packaging and everyday desk waste, 7L to 12L can be practical depending on how often the bin is emptied. A 12L bin is useful for a busier shared office.
Choosing the finish
Because small bins are often visible, finish matters. Brabantia BO options at Red Rhino include Matt Black, White, Platinum and Brilliant Steel across selected capacities.
See our 4L vs 7L vs 12L guide for a direct capacity comparison.
FAQs
What size bin is best for a bathroom?
Approximately 4L to 7L works well for many bathrooms.
Should an office bin have a lid?
It depends on the waste. A lid is more useful when waste may create odours or should remain concealed.
