Combination Dispenser and Receptacle

摘要

A wall-mounted receptacle with a sliding bottom allows removal of discarded articles without any need to manually contact the discarded articles or the interior surface or liner of the receptacle. A dispenser for plastic bags in which items to be discarded can be sealed or other single use items to be dispensed is also provided as part of the receptacle, preferably as an extended front portion. Items to be dispensed are protected from contact with contents of the receptacle by dispenser boxes and that protection can be enhanced by further sealing the volume containing the dispenser boxes.
