We’re putting our foot down, literally.
Imagine never having to touch a public trash can with your hands. First and foremost, it’s a sigh of relief, as it’s no one’s first choice to touch a public waste receptacle. It’s also an essential pillar in Public Health innovation: to limit the interaction between the pedestrians and public waste. Smart, sustainable cities are healthy cities, after all.
The Bigbelly Innovation Team is always one step ahead, and is empowering communities to put their best foot forward.

SAFEST ON THE MARKET:Other than being the fan-favorite of Bigbelly deployments around the world, the Foot Pedal’s design & hardware is an extension of the world leader in Smart Waste technology. The engineering speaks for itself:
Designed with safety as a priority, the Foot Pedal opens the Hopper with a slow “Dampened” response. Unlike any other waste station on the market, Bigbelly’s dampened response prevents injury to small children users in a wheelchair.
TOP DURABILITY:
The Foot Pedal is constructed with strong and durable aluminum and stainless steel, engineered for a smooth and effortless step-on operation. The Hands-Free front door has been designed & tested to last over 10 years of tough operation. Bigbelly’s rigorous lifecycle testing coupled with controlled field introductions prove functional & environmental endurance.
BIGBELLY’S HOPPER DISPOSAL INTERFACE:
Hands-Free Foot Pedal Hopper is self-closing and maintains Bigbelly’s enclosed design for waste and odor control. The Hopper is the only interface that guarantees total waste containment, and zero access to waste and the compaction mechanism.
