Pull-out trash?

16 years ago

Anyone incorporated a pull-out trash into their bathroom cabinetry? Do you like it?

It may sound a bit crazy, but even though I'm sure I would like the look of it, I'm a bit worried about getting used to not having the option of tossing something into the open trash can. It SEEMS like a good idea.

I thought about a pull out trash in the middle part of our double vanity but I think I will use it as a laundry hamper instead.

Assuming you have a large enough vanity, I think it is a fantastic idea. I do not dare ever have open garbage cans in bathrooms due to past experience with pets. So I either have the type where the user must step on the foot pedal to open the lid, or I put them in the vanity cabinet.

I also love stiles' idea for having a pull out laundry hamper.

we put a small trashcan in one of the undersink cabinets...we only have a small amount of bathroom trash, so a pull out trashcan would have too large for us. it's nice to have it out of sight tho!
