Claim:
A trash receptacle comprised of a bin assembly and a lid assembly; said bin assembly having integrated together a bottom panel, a front panel, a rear panel, a first side panel and a second side panel; said bin assembly further having a divider panel that is substantially parallel to said first side panel and said second side panel and bisects said bin assembly forming a first bin and a second bin; said divider panel has a bottom edge that contacts said bottom panel forming an impermeable barrier between said first bin and said second bin; said first bin has a first rim entirely encircling a top edge of said first bin and said second bin has a second rim entirely encircling a top edge of said second bin; said first bin contains a first liner with an open end of said first liner wrapped over said first rim and said second bin contains a second liner with an open end of said second liner wrapped over said second rim; said lid assembly is comprised of a first lid articulably connected to a second lid by a hinge; said first lid snaps onto and entirely around said first rim thereby frictionally retaining said open end of the first liner between the first lid and first rim; and said second lid snaps onto and entirely around said second rim thereby frictionally retaining said second liner between the second lid and second rim; said hinge is substantially adjacent and parallel to a top edge of said divider panel; said first lid covers said first bin and said second lid covers said second bin; said first lid having a first door and said second lid having a second door; said first door and said second door are both biased in a closed position; said first lid is openable about said hinge to release said first liner from between the first rim and the first lid to allow access to said first bin without disturbing the second liner and said second lid is openable to release said second liner from between the second rim and the second lid to allow access to said second bin without disturbing the first liner.
