Behrens Galvanized Steel Trash Can 20 gallon

Made in USA: We researched Behrens. Cans are made in USA. Great!!! Steel lasts, provided one doesn't cut a tree and land it on top of the can, as I did one time. I have a beaten-up steel can that's decades old, outlasting multiple plastic cans and lids.Behrens metalwork: Sure enough, the Behrens steel metalwork is well fitted, well galvanize coated, and sturdy.Lid: The lid sensibly fits over the plastic bag fitted over the rim. The lid has a perimeter protrusion so it is easy to grab the lid edge and remove the lid. I NEVER saw THAT before. O other cans I'd about kill my fingertips trying to pry a lid off. Why pry? Because I had already yanked the center handle out of its rivets trying to remove the lid. On Behrens, one does NOT have to yank a lid center handle or try to pry the edges.Fitment of bags into can: with 30 gallon plastic bags on 30 gallon cans, one strains to stretch the bag and it's closure string over the can rim, then can't get one's fingers out. 30 gallon bags fit this 20 gallon can just fine. (Reduce plastic size to allegedly save cost. Then have to use more bags !??* ?)Location: The 20 gallon can is small enough so that we set it into the carport. Now in cold or heat, rain or snow, we stay out of some weather as we use the can. I guess if one needed a bigger can and had more carport space, that would also work.Conclusion: We are SO pleased to find a fine Made in USA product. A little more price, but multiple the functional years. That's how to reduce the landfill.

A little bigger than I expected but still a great trash can. Lid locks, looks good, & it is made in the USA. A winner all around.

This is a nice quality heavy duty can that has good weight to it. I'm using it to store my dogs dry food away from rodents. The lid fits nice and tight but not to tight that you struggle to remove lid. They must have forgotten the handle on lid or just stopped making them that way. Holds a 50lb bag of food perfectly leaving enough room for the big scoop I use to feed them with. Overall this can is better than expected and it should last decades. The lid is easy to remove and can functions perfectly 👌. I'm buying another for use as a Faraday cage to protect equipment and you probably should too. 100% recommend this can.

APPEARS TO BE STURDY AND WELL MADE BUT THE LID HAS NO HANDLE HOWEVER THERE IS A RIM AROUND THE LID THAT CAN BE USED TO REMOVE IT. THE RIM NEEDS TO BE PRESSED DOWN ALL THE WAY AROUND SO IT DOESN'T HOLD WATER (NOT A BIG DEAL). ITS THE PERFECT SIZE FOR 2-40# BAGS OF OILED SUNFLOWER SEEDS FOR THE BIRDS.

I got this Behrens can to replace the crummy plastic one I previously stored squirrel food in. This can isn’t cheap, but I liked that it was Made in America, and was happy to spend the extra dollars for that, as well as for quality.The can is nicely made, heavy and sturdy…it’s a “no nonsense” solid can. The only change I’d love to see is a handle on top. I was surprised there wasn’t one, even though when i checked back i could clearly see that pictures show it doesn’t have one. Would totally buy from this company again.

These are great if you are storing something in an area easily accessible to mice, like a garage or shed. Durable, easy to carry, and I love the lid.

Worst packaging I have ever received! Can I dented in several places. Using for chicken coop so that's fine, but could not believe the shipping condition.

I use this to store bird food and I love that the lid stays on and keeps the squirrels out.
