Question
Can anyone help me find a double (13 gal. each) trash can for my kitchen (one for trash, one for recyclables) in a decent looking receptacle
I am looking for a double (13 gal. each) trash can for my kitchen (one for trash, one for recyclables) in a decent looking receptacle. I have found triple (7 gal each) cans but not double. Can anyone help?
Answer
I'll assume that you want a free standing model rather than one that is built-into a base cabinet. Based on that assumption, here are three links to potential candidates for your review:

Alternatively, you could have on made by a local cabinet maker. Find the receptacles (bins) that meet your needs and have the cabinet maker build a base cabinet on locking casters with a spring loaded lid.
Two things you may want to consider with respect to the size of the receptacles are:
- the larger the receptacle the more challenging it is to lift out when it is full and
- the larger the receptacle the more days between emptying which for the trash side can become an odor issue.
