BRUTE Square Bin Storage Container Lid, 40-Gallon, Gray

If you are a person who buys containers like these with the intention of storing items, you have two primary concerns.1. Is it good for long term storage? YES.2. What are the Dimensions? Here we have a problem in marketing.(yes their are other concerns)These are great for storage and stackable.The dimensions can be a problem however because they are NOT SQUARE.These boxes are a tapered cube (trapezoidal) as you can clearly see, it gets worse....The dimensions given are for the TOP of the OUTER LIP at 21.5 inches. This is NOT the INTERIOR square nor is it the width including the handles.The Top Interior dimensions (at their widest) is 19 7/8 inches square tapering to the bottom dimensions which are 16 inches square.So, at the minimum this box is 16 inches square (interior) at the bottom. Nothing over 16 inches square will fit on the bottom.(obviously the hypotenuse or diagonal is roughly 18.25 inches)The maximum width at the top is 19 7/8 inches square.The maximum exterior width of the container, which includes the handles on one side is 25.5 inches at the top.The width without the handles is as listed at 21.5 inches.The exterior of the bottom is 16.5 inches square.You DO NOT get 21.5 inches of storage width whatsoever.Therefore.... BEFORE YOU BUY you should read these details.

There were no lids!!!! Even though the description specifically says that “the lid fits securely”. There are no lids included and there are none that are available for purchase. I can’t even order lids that fit. It’s purposely misleading. So the product is not usable unless you are looking for an open container. Not sure why you’d need this if you don’t need a lid.

This really is a Brute of a trash can, but it is exactly what I wanted to corral all my various household recyclables. The red color is great, just what I expected, and it is sturdy as all get-put. The only catch is the dimensions? I cannot find trash bags to fit it's 2' x 2' top, so I am tearing them enough to sort of sit in it. I plan to stitch up a sort of laundry bag affair out of old denim to handle that aspect of things, as the bin is a little heavy to be dragging out to my alley. A liner of some type will be pretty helpful.

We are using this in our newly remodeled kitchen to hold our recyclables. We had a large cabinet built to hold these items, and this works perfectly. It holds a ton without taking up too much space. The handles allow us to carry this outside and empty directly into our curbside container without having to bag items or have overflow that needs to go into bags.

I'm very happy with this purchase. I use it to store recyclables until I take them to the center. It's very well made and light to lift into the back of my SUV for transporting recyclables. I like the gray color rather than the usual bright blue. It does taper a bit towards the bottom but not much at all, and there's plenty of room inside. You can judge the size by the photo comparing it to an adult bicycle and a small trash can. You can buy a lid for it separately, but I didn't. I highly recommend!

Beefy, well constructed garbage or storage can made of heavy plastic material that should last forever. I really like the square low profile to fit up against the house and the nice grab handles. The only negative was the lid had to be ordered separate and was not as tight fitting as I would expect from this brand, hopefully raccoons and skunks don't get the lid off or a heavy rock will sit on top! Standard bags would not fit well in this wide mouth can but for low easy filling it is great. I am just storing already bagged trash from the kitchen in it to be transferred to the big curbside can and it works well for that. I think it is the perfect shape and tough material for tree and yard debris and fits into a Gorilla wagon for hauling it around my half acre. Not sure why the lid is too loose, I ordered the one recommended for this unit.

Sturdy, robust, and beefy. Works great as a bin for collecting household recyclables and transferring them out to the larger collection bins every few days. This is a major upgrade from a smaller trash can that annoyingly had to be emptied much more often. Somewhat pricey, but at least it's heavy duty and perfectly meets our demands.

This makes a perfect garbage can. Wide mouth so you really can,t miss getting rubbish into the bin. As a caregiver this is perfect for all the medical things that are thrown away. The only issue you might come across is finding bags big enough to fit over the mouth. Found the perfect bags at Walgreens and on Amazon though.

Fits perfectly

Muy fuerte no vino con la tapa pero igual no la ocupaba

Good strong lid. Same quality as the base.
