Many kitchen designers assume that effective waste and recycling solutions require a 400mm or 450mm cabinet.

The reality? Some of the most practical waste solutions available today fit into a standard 300mm-wide cabinet.

As kitchens become more compact and every millimetre of storage counts, the ability to incorporate a fully functional waste system into a narrow cabinet can unlock valuable design flexibility. Whether it's an apartment, townhouse, family home, laundry or butler's pantry, a 300mm cabinet no longer needs to be a compromise.

More capacity than most people expect

The Hideaway Compact range has been specifically engineered for 300mm cabinets, offering solutions ranging from compact single bins through to high-capacity recycling systems.

The range includes a 40L single-bin solution, delivering the largest capacity available in a 300mm cabinet.

Recycling? Choose from dual-bin options offering 26L or 32L total capacity, making waste separation simple without increasing cabinet widths.

The innovative stacked configuration provides four 13L buckets and an impressive 52L of total storage capacity within a standard 300mm cabinet, ideal for waste, recycling, composting and soft plastics.

Why specify a 300mm bin?

A 300mm waste solution can help:

• Free up larger cabinets for pot drawers and storage
• Create more flexible kitchen layouts
• Maximise functionality in compact homes and apartments
• Provide practical recycling without sacrificing valuable space
• Deliver hidden waste management where larger cabinets aren't available

Available in both White and Cinder, Hideaway Compact Bins integrate seamlessly into contemporary cabinetry while maintaining the smooth operation and durability Hideaway is known for.

The next time you see a 300mm cabinet in your kitchen design, don't think "too small for a bin."

The biggest mistake isn't choosing a 300mm cabinet. It's not putting a bin in it.
