Product Information
Full details
The Rubbermaid BRUTE 167L waste container is designed for demanding commercial environments, offering enhanced durability and user productivity. Its key benefit lies in its robust construction and innovative features that simplify waste management tasks, such as liner changes and emptying. A potential caveat is its large capacity, which may be excessive for smaller or less demanding settings. This container is built with high-quality resin and a UV inhibitor to withstand harsh conditions, featuring venting channels for easier liner removal, integrated cinches for secure liners, reinforced handles and base for longevity, and a strong rim to resist crushing.

FAQs
Does this container come with a lid?
No, this specific model (FG264360YEL) does not include a lid. Lids are sold separately.
How do I clean the BRUTE container?
You can clean it using mild soap and water with a soft cloth or sponge. For tougher stains, a gentle pressure washer can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What is the warranty period for this container?
Rubbermaid typically offers a warranty for their BRUTE containers, but specific terms can vary. Please refer to the official Rubbermaid documentation or contact their customer support for precise warranty details.
Can this container be used outdoors?
Yes, it is constructed with a UV inhibitor to resist fading and degradation from sunlight, making it suitable for outdoor commercial use.
What makes the liner removal easier?
The container features innovative venting channels that reduce the vacuum effect created when removing a full liner, making it up to 50% easier to pull out.
Is this container stackable?
This specific round BRUTE container is not designed for stacking with other containers. Its primary design focuses on ease of use and durability.
What material is the container made of?
The container is made of high-quality, commercial-grade resin with a UV inhibitor for enhanced durability.
Troubleshooting
Liner is difficult to remove
Ensure the venting channels are clear of debris. Check that the liner is not snagged on the container's interior. If the problem persists, slightly loosen the cinches before pulling.
Container appears to be fading or degrading
Although treated with a UV inhibitor, prolonged extreme exposure can still cause some degradation. Clean the container with mild soap and water. For significant degradation, consider replacing the unit.
Handles feel weak or are tearing
The handles are reinforced, but extreme weight or improper lifting (e.g., pulling from one side only) can cause damage. Distribute weight evenly when lifting and ensure the liner is not overfilled beyond the container's capacity.
Container is difficult to empty
Utilize the contoured base handles for a better grip. Ensure the liner is fully detached and that there are no obstructions in the base. Emptying is generally made easier by the design.

Cons
- Large 167L capacity may be unnecessary for low-traffic areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This waste container requires no assembly. It is ready for use upon unboxing. Simply place it in your desired location and insert a compatible liner. Ensure the integrated cinches are accessible for liner changes.
Compatibility: The container is designed to work with standard 167L capacity waste liners. While it functions as a standalone unit, it is compatible with various waste disposal systems and collection services. It does not come with a lid, but lids are available separately from Rubbermaid for containment or odor control needs.
Care: Cleaning is straightforward due to its seamless construction. Use a mild detergent and water solution with a non-abrasive cloth or sponge. For tougher grime, a pressure washer can be used on a low setting. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools that could damage the resin. The UV-inhibited material helps prevent fading, but regular cleaning will maintain its appearance and hygiene. Ensure the container is fully dry before re-lining to prevent moisture buildup.
