Rubbermaid does not regret ENOUGH that they are unable to offer replacement parts. Apparently the needs of the consumer are unimportant. I suspect Rubbermaid figures they can get us to buy a whole new container when we get tired enough of having our garbage rained on.

I guess I will buy a new container, but this time I will do my research first and I will buy a brand that offers replacement lids. It's too bad, because this really is a great trash can in all other respects.

I too am looking for a new lid. It appears that replacement parts for this item are not available from Rubbermaid, which is inexcuseable. When they are so flimzy and the winds are so strong, it seems like they could make a lot of money offering the lids for sale.

Question

do you all ever plan to sell replacement handles for the 45 gallon wheeled trash can

I have 2 cans with broken handles, and I see other people with the same problem just down the street from me.
replacement parts sure would keep the confidence in your product.

Thanks

The handle on my can was defective from the start, but I kept hammering it back on. Now the wheels are always coming off. Rubbermaid says it has no replacement parts for handles or lids. What a shame. We should all stop buying this product. It was not cheap.

We do not sell replacement handles for our trash cans and have no plans to sell them separately. These handles are only installed during the manufacturing process.

Your local True Value Home Center. But think carefully before buying it. The handle, and the wheels tend to come off, and you cannot buy replacement parts - especially for the lid.

Question

Why not offer beige instead of only dark colors?

I have three older Rubbermaid trash cans I would like to replace. It troubles me that the reviews of the 32-gallon wheeled cans are so poor. Yikes! Why are all the colors offered so dark: Black, dark green. etc? Would like to buy several new beige models. The quality and color palette both need HELP!

The product specifications tab lists colors currently available for each item.

Retailers expect that Rubbermaid will sell them only colors with fast turnover in their stores. We depend on living up to this expectation.

We closely monitor the sales of our products by colors, and we conduct consumer color preference surveys several times each year to detect changes and strong trends.

You may be sure that we will introduce new colors as soon as demand is identified.

To replace the wheels, secure one wheel onto the axle with the end cap. Thread the axle through the openings on the bottom of the container, then attach the second wheel and end cap. Secure the end caps using a rubber mallet.
