About this asset

This industrial-style hanging waste bin is a Revit family featuring a cylindrical wire mesh basket securely mounted to a post. Designed for durability and high visibility, this waste bin consists of a cylindrical basket formed from a heavy-duty wire mesh grid. The structure is supported by a vertical cylindrical post, which provides a sturdy mounting point for the mesh container via integrated metal brackets and clamps. The entire assembly is finished in a uniform dark grey, suggesting a powder-coated steel construction suitable for exterior applications. Its open-grid design allows for easy inspection of contents while maintaining a lightweight appearance, making it a functional component for public spaces and urban environments.

The download is a 389 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

As a standard Revit family, this asset is designed to be placed directly into exterior or site plan views. Users can align the base of the post to the site topography or hardscape surfaces. Because the geometry is relatively simple, it remains lightweight in large-scale master planning models. Materials can be adjusted within the family editor to match specific site finishes or colour palettes, while the visibility settings allow for simplified representation in lower-detail plan views.

This waste bin is essential for populating public realm projects, parks, and retail streetscapes. It is particularly useful for landscape architects and urban designers working on site-wide BIM models where functional street furniture is required for visual realism. It pairs well with other outdoor elements like benches, bollards, and lighting fixtures. Professionals searching for site amenities, municipal waste solutions, or exterior public space furniture will find this component a practical addition to their library for site-level detailing and rendering.
