Rubbermaid Fire-Resistant Trash Can, 22 1/2 gal, Stationary, Rectangular, Metal, Silver

Rectangular metal trash cans are taller and have a larger capacity than wastebaskets. Rectangular cans have flat sides that allow them to be placed flush with the wall, and are more narrow than square and round cans, making them a good choice for small spaces or high-traffic areas where waste is collected. Metal is rust-resistant and does not absorb odors.

Metal trash cans are used indoors and outdoors to collect waste in office buildings, parking garages, walkways, and other high-traffic areas. Metal does not absorb odors and will not warp when used in hot or sunny locations or crack in cold weather. Metal also won't be chewed by pests or rodents, which can happen with plastic trash cans.
