A smarter fit for narrow spaces

The slogan fits because the Half Round Receptacle is designed to sit flat against a wall, using a half-round profile instead of projecting deeply into a walkway. Its maximum dimensions are 17.5 inches wide, 9 inches deep, and 32.5 inches high, giving facilities a practical way to add collection capacity without creating an unnecessary obstacle.

Place one against a wall in a corridor, break room, reception area, classroom, or workroom. In higher-traffic zones, two receptacles can be positioned together to support separate waste and recycling collection while maintaining a coordinated appearance.

Flexible collection in one receptacle

Safco includes slot, round, and half-circle lids with the receptacle. That gives planners and facility teams the flexibility to match the opening to the intended stream, from everyday trash to recycling. Decals are also included, helping make the purpose of each receptacle more visible to users.

The product page identifies the receptacle with a 15-gallon capacity, while the specifications list a 12-gallon volume. In either case, the Half Round Receptacle is sized for routine indoor collection in shared environments rather than small personal waste at an individual workstation.

Built for practical indoor use

The receptacle uses a metal frame with steel as the primary material and comes in a black finish that blends with a range of office, institutional, and public-space interiors. Its finished product weight is listed at 7 pounds, and no assembly is required. The result is a straightforward waste station that can be put into service without adding installation complexity.

It is intended for indoor use, making it a strong match for offices, schools, colleges, healthcare-adjacent administrative areas, hospitality interiors, and commercial facilities. The flat-back design is especially useful where collection points need to stay orderly along a perimeter rather than occupy the center of a room.

Who should consider the Half Round Receptacle?

Facility managers: Add organized waste collection along walls and in circulation areas without taking up the depth of a conventional freestanding can.
Office planners: Coordinate trash and recycling stations with reception areas, break rooms, conference spaces, and open-plan work environments.
Schools and campuses: Use the included decals and lid choices to make collection points easier to identify in classrooms, commons, and administrative areas.
Hospitality and commercial teams: Maintain a consistent, understated appearance in interior public areas while supporting routine waste management.

What stands out

The Half Round Receptacle’s strongest advantage is the combination of space efficiency and configuration flexibility. It is not limited to a single opening style or collection purpose: three lid options are included, decals come with the unit, and the profile works well against a wall or in a paired setup. For buyers seeking a clean-looking receptacle that supports practical waste and recycling organization without demanding much floor depth, Safco’s model 9940BL is a focused, adaptable choice.
