A method of using an adapter for a bin, comprising the steps of:
- providing a bin comprising:
- a support enclosure for a roll of thermoplastic produce bags, said enclosure having a half round cylindrical wall, first and second vertical side walls;
- a supporting rim, said rim disposed orthogonally to front edges of said side walls and upper and lower edges of said cylindrical wall and having spaced apertures for mounting said enclosure to a surface;
- said surface having an opening sized and shaped to permit passage of outer surfaces of said walls but not said supporting rim;
- said vertical side walls having first and second integral channels, said channels providing an entry point and support for a rod, said rod being sized and shaped to support said roll of produce bags in said channels;
- providing an adapter comprising:
- first and second bag dispensers for vertically folded roll mounted bags, each of said dispensers having first and second side panels and mounting features for attaching said dispensers to a horizontal surface;
- a loading tray, said loading tray having a planar, horizontal surface, at least two attachment points for attaching said first and second dispensers to said surface, aligning front edges and bottom edges of said dispensers, disposing said second side panel of said first dispenser adjacent said first side panel of said second dispenser;
- a first axle, said first axle being mounted to said loading tray orthogonally adjacent said first side panel of said first dispenser and being spaced forwardly and outwardly from said first side panel;
- a second axle, said second axle being mounted to said loading tray orthogonally adjacent said second side panel of said second dispenser and being spaced forwardly and outwardly from said second side panel;
- and
- first and second positioning wheels, said positioning wheels being mounted to said first and second axles and disposed to slidably engage said first and second integral channels with said bottom edges of said dispensers disposed upon a lower portion of said cylindrical wall of said enclosure.
- attaching said first and second dispensers to said loading tray using said mounting features and said attachment points;
- inverting said loading tray;
- inserting said positioning wheels into said first and second integral channels in said enclosure;
- positioning said loading tray in said enclosure with said first and second dispensers facing upwardly;
- securing said loading tray to said lower edge of said cylindrical wall with at least one L-shaped bracket;
- and
- inserting a roll of bags in at least one of said dispensers.
