A commercial trash bin assembly includes a large commercial trash bin. The commercial trash bin is fitted with a commercial trash bin lid, which has an opening in the front. A user may select from a variety of interchangeable inserts, one of which is mounted onto the lid and received into the opening. One type of insert is fixedly attached to the lid and completely closes the opening. The lid is then used as a standard commercial trash bin lid. Another type of insert is hinged to the lid and is spring-biased into a closed position, but can be opened to insert small objects through the opening without having to lift the full lid. Yet another type of insert provides separate apertures, either for recyclable bottles and cans, for example, or to more evenly distribute the recyclable materials. Arrangements may be provided inside of the commercial trash bin to segregate different recyclable materials.
