Round step trash cans have a foot-activated cover to provide hands-free use while hiding contents and containing odors. Round cans collect waste in schools, hospitals, offices, and other indoor locations.

Slim-profile rectangular step trash cans are used to collect waste in tight spaces, such as hallways, copy rooms, and break rooms. They can be placed flush against a wall or in a corner so they take less floor space than square or round cans. Hands-free use keeps hands from getting dirty and limits the spread of germs.

Rectangular step trash cans are more narrow than square cans, so they can be used to collect trash where floor space is limited, such as in breakrooms and restrooms. The low-profile design allows these to be placed against walls where floor space is limited.

Square step trash cans hold more waste than round cans that take up a similar amount of floor space. Square cans can be placed next to each other without gaps, and can be placed against a wall or in a corner to keep cans out of traffic areas. The foot-activated pedal opens the can without using hands, and the lid is returned to the closed position when the pedal is released.

Oval step trash cans have a flat back that allows the can to be placed against a wall to save floor space where waste needs collecting. A foot-activated pedal opens the lid when pressed, and allows the lid to close when released. Hands-free use helps limit the spread of germs and keep hands clean.
