Trash Chute

Trash Chutes for Restaurants, Cafes, Bakeries & Foodservice Establishments

Trash Chutes (trash waste chutes, garbage chutes) streamline waste disposal from prep counters, service stations, or back-of-house zones, directing waste directly into discrete containment or compactor systems. Featuring a simple design with a cylindrical structure running through the counter, garbage chutes enable your staff to easily dispose of waste, food debris, and garbage with less labor, less risk of contamination, and fewer spills.

Types of Trash Chutes

Countertop, prep station, drop-in, wall-mounted, and multi-compartment are the main trash chutes.

• Countertop / Prep-Station Trash Chutes: Countertop trash chutes are mostly rectangular and typically come with cutting boards, making them versatile. Furthermore, these stainless steel garbage chutes have smooth edges to prevent tearing and injuries, and a flush design for smooth use. They offer lengths of 6” to 20” (15.24 cm to 50.8 cm) for small- to medium-scale operations. Hence, these trash can accessories are ideal for bakeries, sandwich shops, pizzerias, cafes, sandwich/assembly lines, and back-of-house in restaurants.
• Drop-In / Wall-Mounted Trash Chutes: These drop-in trash chutes are made from stainless steel or polypropylene and drop waste through an under-counter or wall chute into a container or compactor below. They typically have a round shape and hemmed bottom and top edges. To address varying application capacities, they are available in sizes ranging from 6” × 6” to 12” × 12” (15.2 cm × 15.2 cm to 30.48 cm × 30.48 cm), depending on use. They are ideal for high-traffic service zones, food courts, hotel kitchens, and restaurants.
• Multi-Compartment Trash Chutes: Multi-compartment trash chutes have 2 or 3 compartments to separate general waste, recyclables, and compost. Therefore, they are ideal for sustainable waste-handling programs.
