Rubbermaid makes many types of trash cans for use around the yard and home. Their industrial and commercial grade trash cans are built for the most harshest of treatment.
Rubbermaid trash cans are backed by lifetime warranties.
Rubbermaid “Brute” Series
Commercial quality trash cans such as the “Brute” series Rubbermaid trash can are not only limited to industry use.
Yard owners with heavy duty jobs like mass yard waste disposal can make good use of the Brute series. Sizes range from 20 to 55 gallons.
Bags can be purchased for each of these sizes to keep the interior of the trash can clean. The extremely tough plastic rubber used in the Brute’s construction is resistant to cracking, chipping and peeling.
You can bet that any Brute trash can can stand up to yard debris, dirt, and even rocks.Keep in mind that not all Brutes come with lids, and may need to be purchased separately.
Part of the reason why the Brute is so strong is the reinforced rim openings.
The thicker plastic around the rim ensures that the trash can will not bow, flex or crack when handling heavy loads. The rims support two large, ergonomic handles to allow for easy lifting.
Lower quality trash cans often have small, unwieldy handles which can slip from the hands easily. The base is also reinforced to allow the Brute to be dragged across the ground with even the heaviest of loads.
Rubbermaid commercial trash cans like these have anti-jam functionality known as nesting which prevents the multiple cans from locking together when stacked. Simply pull up on the handles and the cans will separate from one another.
Multiple trash cans can be stacked up without worry of them falling over. That’s the beauty of the Rubbermaid design.

“Roughneck” Rubbermaid Trash Can
The Rubbermaid Roughneck series remains a favorite among consumers for its lightweight and flexibility.
The Roughneck trash can is the ideal refuse container, and can be used for trash ranging from yard waste to kitchen refuse. A curved lid keeps smells in and moisture out.
In fact, the can can be left outdoors in the rain without fear of water getting inside. Attached to each of the handles is a bag cinch which keeps the trash bag from falling into the container (very handy).
The handles are designed to be easy to grip for varying hand sizes.
The handles and lid can support a rope tether (not included) which prevents users from misplacing the lid or having the lid blow away in harsh winds. By pressing the lid it will lock into place and prevent most animals from tampering with the contents.
Rubbermaid understands that heavy loads can be difficult to carry by hand, which is why many of the Roughneck containers have built in wheels. These large diameter hard plastic wheels allow the container to tilt over and be rolled around the yard between sites.
With a system like this, you’ll never hassle with a hand truck, dolly or wheel cart again!
While the most widely produced color is classic black, other colors like green, blue and gray exists as well.
Rubbermaid Service Truck
Reserved for the biggest and baddest of yard jobs, Rubbermaid’s line of service trucks have the highest load capacity of any refuse container.
Often employed at construction sites and by professional landscapers, these service trucks look like giant wheeled hoppers. They consist of a large open-topped bin made from durable plastic resin.
Large wheels on the bottom allow for easy tipping of the debris when the job is done. The cart can stand on its own, allowing trash to be dumped inside easily.
The largest of these trucks are supported by a metal frame to keep the plastic in shape. As you might expect, the price for these carts is quite hefty, with the largest being between $1000-$1500.
Conclusion
While you might only use Rubbermaid kitchen trash cans an home currently, you could be missing out on the convenience of their industrial products, especially if you do any type of yard work at home. With reasonable prices backed by a lifetime warranty, you can expect your quality Rubbermaid products to last many years or your money back.
