The complete Bo family: stylish waste separation for any room

Looking for a bin that is not only practical but also beautiful? Meet the Bo family from Brabantia. This is a bin made to be seen: sleekly designed, cleverly laid out and available in models for every room. Bo looks great and is incredibly handy for waste - there's one for every room of your home. Of course, there are PerfectFit bin liners that offer a perfect fit for the Bo too - the colour code on the inside of your Bo will tell you exactly which PerfectFit bin liners you need.

The Bo family includes a variety of models and sizes, so there’s always a version to suit your household and style: Bo Touch Trash Can (9.5 gal, 3 + 6 gal, 3 x 3 gal), Bo Touch Trash Can Hi (16 gal, 2 x 8 gal), Bo Step-On Trash Can (9.5 gal, 3 + 6 gal, 3 x 3 gal), Bo Step-On Trash Can XXL (16 gal, 2 x 8 gal), Bo Waste Trash Can (1, 1.8, and 3.2 gal), and Bo Waste Trash Can Hi (1, 1.8, and 3.2 gal on elegant legs).

Whether you choose a compact Bo for the bathroom or a generous multi-compartment version for the kitchen, every model is designed to be seen. Clean lines and elegant details mean your Bo doesn’t need to be hidden—it looks great in plain sight.

The Bo family has been part of our collection since 2017, when we introduced the iconic Bo Touch Trash Can—our first trash can on legs. Since then, the Bo family has continued to grow. There’s a Bo for your kitchen, bathroom, toilet, and even laundry. And they’re all beautiful.

Choosing the right trash can starts with where you’ll use it and the type of waste generated there.

1. Look at the space 
   Where will the trash can go? A kitchen requires a different size and model than a bathroom or bedroom. Also consider the available space—can it stand freely, or does it need to fit against a wall or inside a cabinet?
2. Determine the waste volume
   How much waste is generated in that space? Kitchens usually produce the most, while bathrooms produce the least. This helps determine whether you need a larger capacity (e.g., 16 gallons) or a compact option (1 or 1.8 gallons).
3. Think about waste separation
   Want to separate multiple types of waste? Choose a model with two or three compartments so you can easily sort recyclables, organic waste, and trash.
4. Choose the control that suits
   Touch-top cans are convenient and quick, while step-on operation is hygienic and hands-free. In smaller spaces, a simple lid or wall-mounted option may be more practical.
5. Pay attention to use and maintenance
   A removable inner bucket makes emptying and cleaning easier. Custom-fit liners prevent mess and keep the bag neatly in place.
6. Look at design and style
   Since your trash can is often visible, you’ll want it to match your interior. Choose the shape, color, and finish that blends in—or stands out as a design feature.

. In the kitchen, where most waste is generated, models with two or three compartments are ideal. From the stylish Bo Touch Trash Can to the spacious Bo Touch Trash Can Hi and the practical Bo Step-On Trash Can, every model helps keep your space tidy and modern.

Place it somewhere easy to access while cooking, such as along a wall or in a convenient corner.

In your bathroom or toilet, you want a trash can that’s attractive, easy to clean, and simple to use. Bo Waste Trash Cans feature a hygienic removable inner bucket and a lid that opens from any direction. These compact models include a built-in handle at the back, and the 1- and 1.8-gallon sizes come with a wall bracket, making it easy to keep your floor clean.

For bedrooms or home offices, a discreet yet stylish model works best. A Bo Waste Trash Can or Bo Waste Trash Can Hi (1.8 or 3.2 gallons) fits perfectly—small enough to stay out of the way, yet large enough for paper, packaging, and everyday waste.

In utility rooms, hobby spaces, or garages, larger capacity is key. That’s where the Bo Touch Trash Can Hi and Bo Step-On Trash Can shine: spacious, durable, and still sleekly designed.

Bo also offers a stylish way to organize your laundry. Our Bo Laundry Hampers are space-saving and beautifully designed to fit your home. For a great start (and end) to your day. 

One of the biggest advantages of the Bo family is the ability to mix and match. Place a large multi-compartment Bo in the kitchen, a compact Bo Waste Trash Can in the bathroom, and a Bo Waste Trash Can Hi in the bedroom or office. This creates a consistent, stylish look throughout your home, while each room gets exactly what it needs. Plus, they’re available in a wide range of beautiful colors.

We care about the planet just as much as you do. That’s why all Bo trash cans are made from high-quality materials and designed to last at least 10 years. They are Bronze Cradle-to-Cradle® certified, easy to clean, hygienic, and built with replaceable parts, so you can enjoy your Bo for years to come.
