What Is An 1100L Wheelie Bin?
A 1100L wheelie bin is a large commercial waste container often used by businesses and organisations that generate substantial amounts of waste. Occasionally referred to as a Eurobin, the 1100L wheelie bin is one of the largest capacity commercial bins available.
Due to its size and makeup, the 1100L bin is often used at facilities across multiple sectors, including hospitality, retail, education, healthcare, and commercial. Many organisations choose to use multiple 1100L wheeled bins to effectively separate general waste, recycling, and other waste streams.
1100L Bin Hire & Collection Service
Every business produces waste differently, which is why it is so important for the waste disposal process within any organisation to be carried out in a way that suits that organisation’s needs by selecting the right container sizes and collection schedules. For businesses that generate significantly large volumes of waste, 1100L bins are a reliable and efficient way to keep sites and facilities clean, compliant, and free from overflowing waste.
At Waste Managed, our 1100L bin hire and collection service is tailored to our customers’ individual business needs. Once we have conducted an initial assessment of your waste needs, our team can recommend the combination of bins and containers we believe would be most suitable for your business, based on the types and volumes of waste your business produces.
From single 1100L wheelie bins for general waste to multiple bins and containers for different, segregated waste streams, we can provide a bespoke bin solution tailored to your organisational requirements. This can include regular weekly and fortnightly collections, with some businesses often combining 1100L bins with smaller commercial containers to maximise recycling rates and improve waste segregation.

1100L Bin Dimensions & Weight Allowance
The 1100L wheelie bin is the largest standard wheelie bin commonly used for commercial waste collections. Its substantial capacity makes it particularly well-suited to businesses that generate large quantities of waste yet still require a container that can be moved around the site when necessary.
1100L Bin Dimensions
- Width: 1.26m
- Depth: 1.00m
- Height: 1.40m
These 1100L wheelie bin dimensions remain broadly consistent across different waste streams and container types.
Weight Allowance
- General Waste: Up to 70kg
- Dry Mixed Recycling: Up to 40kg
A standard 1100L bin holds approximately 18 full refuse sacks. This is one of many reasons why it is an ideal commercial bin type for high-footfall environments and organisations that will produce significant amounts of waste between collections.
1100L wheelie bins are designed for daily use and remain easy to manoeuvre thanks to their four-wheeled construction and durable, commercial-grade materials.
For any business or organisation whose site/facility generates multiple waste streams, our team of experts can advise on which bin solution will be most appropriate for your needs. Whether that is a combination of 1100L bins and smaller commercial containers, or a single bin, would help improve waste segregation and operational efficiency.
1100L Bin Hire & Collection for Businesses
An 1100L wheelie bin is ideal for organisations that produce larger volumes of waste or have sufficient outdoor space to accommodate commercial waste containers of this size.
Restaurants
Restaurants produce not only enormous quantities of food waste but also significant volumes of general waste, packaging, and recyclable materials. By having multiple 1100L wheelie bins, restaurants and similar businesses can help keep waste storage areas segregated, organised and manageable between collections.
Hotels
Hotels and hospitality venues often generate various waste streams, including general waste, recycling, and sanitary waste. The 1100L bin provides plenty of storage capacity while reducing the risk of overflowing waste areas.
Offices
Larger office environments will frequently produce copious quantities of paper, cardboard, and mixed recycling. Dedicated 1100L bins can help office-based businesses manage these materials efficiently.
Retail Parks & Shopping Centres
Retail locations and similar organisations are likely to generate reasonable amounts of packaging and general waste, making 1100L bins an effective solution for maintaining clean and organised waste storage areas.
Schools, Colleges & Universities
Schools and other educational facilities often require waste containers with large storage capacity due to the substantial amounts of waste generated by students, staff, and catering operations.
Waste Types Suitable for an 1100L Bin
The versatility of the 1100L wheelie bin makes it suitable for a wide range of commercial waste streams. Suitable waste streams can include:
- Paper waste
- Plastic packaging
- Mixed office waste
- Non-hazardous commercial waste
