Abstract: A disposable receptacle for trash. The receptacle is preferably in the shape of a truncated cone. The receptacle includes a self-supporting container having a bottom opening and an opening on the top. The top opening is of sufficient size to permit the passage of trash therethrough. Sidewalls are provided between the bottom and top, the sidewalls having an interior surface and an exterior surface. A flexible bag, preferably made of plastic, is mounted within the container. The bag has an opening therein which is fixedly mounted within the container near the top of the container. The bag is thus mounted in the container such that the bag receives all of the trash that passes through the top opening. In use, trash is pushed through the top opening into the bag to be retained therein and when filled access to the bottom of the bag may be obtained through the bottom of the container. The bag is then twisted to securely entrap the trash therein for subsequent sanitary disposal of the complete receptacle.
