A waste separation container for selectively separating and storing waste material includes a receptacle with an upper edge with slits in its opening upwardly to receive and hold a plurality of thin plastic bags in an open position. The slits are preferably defined by flexible lobes, contiguous one another and extending along the upper edge of the receptacle. Preferably, a closure for the receptacle is provided, that has specifically designated through apertures that allow for discernable placement of recyclable material in a correspondingly appropriate compartment or bag. The provision of strips of flexible material with lobes defining between them bag-retaining slits, either to be mounted on existing containers, on partitions for existing containers or holders to be placed in existing containers permits retrofitting of existing waste receptacles to accomplish the object of making easy the segregation of waste as it is generated.
