The 240 L is the **workhorse of the wheeled range**: big enough for a
week's waste from a small block, still light enough for one person to
wheel out on two 200 mm wheels.

### Two builds
- **Standard**: hinged silent lid, two wheels.
- **Pedal**: the same bin with a foot treadle and a linkage to the lid.

### Dimensions
- **63.4 US gal (240 L)**
- **22.24 × 28.94 × 41.93 in (565 × 735 × 1065 mm)**, plus a 75 mm lid
- **29.76 lb (13.5 kg)**
- **Rated payload 211.64 lb (96 kg)**
- **7.87 in (200 mm)** wheels · **3 mm wall**

A figure of 1050 × 725 × 570 mm is also in circulation, a few millimetres
off the datasheet in each direction. **We publish the datasheet figures**,
which the drawing and the specification table both confirm.

### Design standard
Built to the **EN 840-1 and EN 840-6** dimensions and design requirements.
The lifting comb bar across the front rim is what the collection vehicle
engages.

### Where it belongs
**Outdoor use**, as the specification states: residential blocks, shops,
workshops, factories and municipal rounds. It is sometimes described as
indoor, which sits oddly beside the municipal use it is named for.

### The range, end to end
Eleven sizes, from a bin that goes under a counter to a container a
collection vehicle lifts:

- **45 L** 1.7 kg, indoor
- **50 L** 6 kg, post or wall mounted
- **60 L** 3 kg, indoor, pedal option
- **65 L** 2.7 kg, indoor
- **100 L** 7.9 kg, two wheels, pedal option
- **120 L** 8.8 kg, two wheels, pedal option
- **240 L** 13.5 kg, two wheels, pedal option  **(this one)**
- **360 L** 22 kg, two wheels
- **660 L** 38 kg, four castors
- **770 L** 46 kg, four castors
- **1100 L** 64 kg, four castors

The wall follows the size. **3 mm holds from the 45 L all the way to the
240 L**, and then steps up: **5 mm on the 360**, **5.7 on the 660**,
**6 on the 770** and **7 on the 1100**. Each figure is the section marked
on the drawing for that size.

### Temperature
Rated **−4 to +104 °F (−20 to +40 °C)**, the lower of the two figures in
circulation for this bin.

### Colour and branding
Six standard colours: **yellow, dark green, charcoal grey, blue, red and
light green**, which is how a site keeps its streams apart without a
label. **Printed branding.** Dimensions carry a **±5 mm production
tolerance**.
