Joseph Joseph Totem Max Trash Can

The Totem Max uses a stacked configuration rather than side-by-side bins, allowing you to fit 60 liters of total capacity into a footprint of just 39cm by 36.6cm. This makes it ideal for tight kitchen corners or narrow spaces where floor area is limited.

Yes, the two 30-liter compartments are fully removable, allowing you to take them out for deep cleaning or rinsing. The unit also features bag-retaining holes to keep liners securely in place, which helps prevent leaks and messes inside the buckets.

The lid features a built-in compartment for a replaceable activated carbon filter, which is designed to neutralize unpleasant smells from general and food waste. For best results, we recommend replacing the filter every three months.

While the starter set includes custom-fit IW6 and IW2 liners designed to fit the compartments perfectly without bunching, you can use standard trash bags. However, using the custom-fit liners ensures the bag remains hidden and makes the most of the bin's internal capacity.

The 3-liter food waste caddy is designed to sit inside one of the main compartments or can be placed on a countertop for easy access while prepping meals. It is fully removable, making it convenient to carry directly to your outdoor compost bin.

The Totem Max features a manual lift lid. While it is simple to operate, it does not have a foot pedal or motion sensor, so you will need to use your hand to open it.
