Home Recycle Bins – A Clever Storage Solution

My wife and I do a lot of recycling and had long struggled with sorting our recyclables from the other household waste. We finally settled on a clever home recycle bin storage solution which quickly allows us to throw away our regular waste and to sort our recyclables all in one hidden unit. The Rev-A-Shelf storage solution allows two trash cans to be stored in a standard under counter cupboard.

 1. Choose a convenient cupboard

2. Install the guide rails

3. Drop in the tall kitchen trash cans

The installation is simple, you just need a screw driver (an electric drill is recommended). Simply pick a cupboard close to where you do the majority of your cooking and preparation. Clean out the cupboard and screw in the guide rails which the final rack will slide on. Fit the trash can rack in place and install the two tall trash cans.

We bought ours from our local Lowes store and the complete unit retailed for about $59.00.

We use the rear trash can for all our recyclables and the front trash can for other waste. Having two separate trash cans allows easy sorting right in the kitchen and the best aspect of all, the trash cans are completely hidden when the cupboard is closed!
