Expert Insights

The 5-quart size is ideal for moderate-traffic smoking areas with 10-25 smokers per day. The beige color complements most commercial building exteriors and blends with sandstone, brick, and neutral facades. The removable galvanized steel bucket simplifies cleaning — just lift, dump into a fire-safe container, and replace. Position receptacles 25 feet from building entrances per most local ordinances. The hold-down tabs secure the top section during high winds. For high-traffic areas with 50+ smokers, consider the larger 4-gallon model (A1208BeigeE) to reduce emptying frequency. Place one receptacle per smoking area entrance/exit for maximum compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

5-Quart Cigarette Butt Receptacle, Beige Poly

How often does the 5-quart bucket need emptying?

For a smoking area with 10-25 smokers daily, expect to empty weekly. High-traffic areas may require twice-weekly service. The removable galvanized steel bucket lifts out easily for quick maintenance.

Is this receptacle fire-safe?

Yes. The cone-shaped top forces cigarettes to be extinguished before dropping into the bucket. The polyethylene body and galvanized steel bucket are designed to contain smoldering butts safely. Always empty into a fire-safe metal container.

Will the beige color fade in sunlight?

The polyethylene contains UV inhibitors that resist fading and cracking from sun exposure. The beige color is designed for long-term outdoor use and maintains its appearance for years under normal conditions.

What is the difference between 5-quart and 4-gallon models?

The 5-quart model (15.5" dia x 37.5" high) is the standard choice for moderate-traffic areas. The 4-gallon model (17.5" dia x 43.5" high) holds 3x more butts and is better for high-traffic locations with 50+ daily smokers, reducing emptying frequency.

How do I secure this receptacle against wind or theft?

The included hold-down tabs help secure the top section. For theft prevention, the receptacle can be bolted to concrete or weighted with sand in the base. Some facilities use chain or cable to anchor it to a railing or post.
