That's a great question, and one we hear often! The good news is that our standard urban trash cans are designed for convenience right out of the gate. For the vast majority of our models, the assembly required is minimal to none. Many of our heavy-duty plastic or metal bins come as a single, pre-assembled unit. You simply take it out of the packaging, and it's ready for use.
For some larger models, particularly those with wheels and a hinged lid, there might be a few quick steps involved. This typically means attaching the wheels to the base—which usually just involves pushing them into pre-molded sockets until they click—and then snapping the lid onto the main body. This process is designed to be tool-free and should take no more than five minutes. We include clear, illustrated instructions in the box to make it completely straightforward. Our goal is to get your new trash can into service as quickly and easily as possible, with no need for special tools or complicated DIY skills. So, you can expect a hassle-free setup that gets the job done in minutes.
