Supplemental waste recycling container for mounting to a wastebasket

A supplemental waste container for mounting to either the inside or outside of a wastebasket to facilitate the recycling of waste, said supplemental container comprising:

• first and second opposing side walls, each having an out-turned rim;
• first and second opposing end walls connecting the side walls;
• two mounting members extending outwardly from opposite top corners of the first side wall of the supplemental container, said members being substantially perpendicular to the first side wall of the supplemental container;
• each extending member having parallel flanges depending from opposing sides of the members.

A supplemental waste container for mounting to, and depending from, a rim of a wastebasket, the wastebasket having side walls and, at least, one end wall connecting the side walls, the supplemental container being adapted for mounting to either inside or outside surfaces of the wastebasket along the end wall, said supplemental container comprising:

• first and second opposing side walls;
• first and second opposing end walls connecting the side walls, the side walls having a width substantially equal to an interior width of the end wall of the wastebasket;
• first and second mounting members extending horizontally outwardly from opposite top corners of the first side wall of the supplemental container perpendicular to the first side walls of the supplemental container;
• the first side wall being complementarily shaped with an outside surface of the end wall of the wastebasket for juxtaposition therewith when said supplemental container is mounted to said outside of said wastebasket;
• an out-turned rim being formed along a top edge of the first side wall for mounting over the rim of the wastebasket along the end wall of the wastebasket;
• each extending member having depending flanges for mounting over a portion of the rim of the side walls of the wastebasket;
• the second side wall being complementarily shaped with the inside surface of the end wall of the wastebasket for juxtaposition therewith when said supplemental container is mounted to said inside of said wastebasket;
• an out-turned rim being formed along a top edge of the second side wall of the supplemental container for mounting over the rim of the end wall of the wastebasket;
• the extending members mounting to a portion of the top rim of the side walls of the wastebasket.

A supplemental waste container for mounting to, and depending from, a top rim of a wastebasket, the wastebasket having parallel side walls and an end wall connecting the side walls, the supplemental container being adapted for mounting to either inside or outside surfaces of the wastebasket along the end wall, said supplemental container comprising:

• first and second substantially parallel opposing side walls;
• first and second substantially parallel opposing end walls connecting the side walls, the side walls having a width substantially equal to an interior width of the end wall of the wastebasket;
• first and second substantially parallel mounting members extending outwardly from opposite top corners of the first side wall of the supplemental container perpendicular to the first side wall of the supplemental container;
• said members being parallel to a plane defined by top rims of the side walls and top rims of the ends walls of the supplemental container;
• the first side wall being complementarily shaped with an outside surface of the end wall of the wastebasket for juxtaposition therewith when said supplemental container is mounted to said outside of said wastebasket;
