A bin for the disposal of cigarette waste or the like, comprises a housing 10, 110 defining a chamber 11, 111 and a container 14, 114 received in the chamber for retention of discarded waste, the housing defining at least one aperture 28, 128 through which waste can be discarded for receipt ixt said container. The bin farther comprises a downwardly-extending funnel 30, 130 disposed within the housing below the aperture, the funnel defining an opening 31, 131 and being configured to guide waste via said opening onto a lower downwardly-inclined waste guide 18, 118 configured to guide waste into the container, said lower waste guide being disposed in or adjacent to an opening of the container. The funnel and lower waste guide are configured so as to restrict the ingress of oxygen via the aperture into the container and the egress of smoke from burning waste retained within the container to the aperture such that said smoke is recirculated within the bin chamber and thereby helps to extinguish the burning waste. |
