Fabricating Modena Waste Receptacles

Municipal Waste Receptacles

Street and park waste receptacles built to keep household garbage out and make bag changes quick for crews. About municipal waste receptacles

Household dumping is the problem these were drawn around. The Modena Square Top Waste Receptacle was the first Wishbone receptacle designed to defeat it, with a non-removable square top, an opening adjustable up to 16 in and tamper-resistant maintenance access, in a 36 US gallon (137 L) footprint. The Beselt Square Waste Receptacle restricts the opening to 6 to 8 in under a crowned top that sheds water, with an optional hands-free foot pedal to keep animals out.

Servicing is the other half. The Beselt has a hidden side-door release, so no keys. The Pipeline Waste Receptacle sets its 27 US gallon liner on the ground under a 27 in profile, which means less reach and less strain on a bag change, at 52 lb. The Modena Curved Top ECO 35 Gallon Receptacle for Wheeled Trash Can wraps a standard 32 to 35 gallon cart in a unibody aluminum cabinet. The crew rolls the cart out and tips it into the collection vehicle.

The Beselt Large Capacity Round Waste Receptacle takes the family up to 40 US gallons (152 L) for busy parks and plazas, at 70% recycled content by weight. Frames throughout are marine-grade aluminum with stainless steel hardware.

Testimonial
Wishbone supplied the City of Campbell River all the furnishings last fall for an upgraded stretch of the South Island HWY south of Campbell River. Furnishings included bike racks, picnic tables, benches and our new single seat JEM lounge chairs. Trina is the Parks Technician for the City of Campbell River and she recently gave us these comments regarding the JEM Lounge Chairs we supplied on the project. Thank you to Wishbone for the JEM chairs. They are really comfortable, look terrific and the colours are perfect for the oceanside site. The chair blends the hues of driftwood and ocean and is a perfect complement to our branded City ‘blue’. Sitting in these chairs, placed as close to the beach as possible, is a magical experience. Imagine…a cup of coffee, and easy chair and a view that is out of this world!

We are very pleased with the curb stops...they are a fantastic product. I used 60 of them to define a few parking areas in our industrial park area, Warren is using his at our community arena parking lot, and Dougal has used the majority of his to create a parking lot near the train station.

Testimonial
My husband and I were taking a walk in North Vancouver and I decided to stop for a quick rest on a city bench. Once I sat down I immediately told my husband “You’ve got to try this!”. It was the most comfortable bench I’d ever sat on. I noticed a product tag on another bench further on down Capilano Road, and wrote down the phone number. From there I contacted Wishbone and received a quick response and pricing for the identical all-metal “Mountain Classic” bench. Fast forward to the completion date and Wishbone even delivered the bench (including going down some tricky stairs!). Thanks for providing such excellent service and an amazing product!
