FAQs
Can I use standard trash bags with this bin?
Yes, standard 50-litre liners are compatible. Ensure the bag is tucked securely over the inner metal liner.
Is the bin suitable for outdoor use?
While the steel construction is robust, it is designed for indoor use; prolonged exposure to outdoor elements may lead to corrosion.
How do I clean the inner liner?
The liner can be removed entirely, allowing you to wash it with warm water and mild detergent in a sink or outdoors.
Does the stainless steel flap require specific care?
Wiping it regularly with a microfiber cloth and a stainless steel polish will prevent persistent fingerprint marks.
What are the primary differences between this and smaller models?
The main difference is the capacity; the 50L model is significantly taller and wider, intended for high-traffic environments.
Troubleshooting
The flap gets stuck or does not close properly
Check for debris caught in the hinge mechanism and wipe clean. Ensure the bin is not overfilled beyond the liner capacity.
Floor is scratched
Verify that the plastic bottom rim is correctly positioned and free of trapped grit or sand that may have accumulated underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Wesco Pushboy comes pre-assembled. Simply remove the packaging, place the metal liner inside the outer shell, and ensure the outer lid is securely seated.
Compatibility: This bin is designed for standard 50-litre bin liners. Ensure the bag is properly tucked over the edge of the inner metal liner so it remains hidden when the outer shell is closed.
Care: To clean the outer surface, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid abrasive sponges that may scratch the powder-coated finish. For the stainless steel flap, a standard stainless steel cleaner can be used to prevent fingerprints and keep it shining. Ensure the bottom plastic rim is kept clean to prevent debris from grinding against your floors.
