An automatic lining refuse receptacle device, a kit for the device and an associated method of using same are disclosed for use in providing a means for conveniently holding and replacing trash liners from within a trash can. The device includes a base; a hinge; a spring latch; a collar; a dowel; a spindle; a catch; a bucket; and a ridge. The hinge is attached to the base. The spring latch is attached to the base. The collar is attached to the base. The dowel is pivotally attached to the collar. The spindle has a distal and proximate ends, in which the proximate end of the spindle is attached to the dowel. The catch is attached to the base, wherein the catch is capable of contacting the distal end of the spindle. The bucket is attached to the hinge, in which the bucket has a top rim and a bottom plate, wherein the bottom plate has an elongated slot cut through the bottom plate of the bucket. The ridge is attached to the bucket, wherein the ridge is capable of being clamped onto with the spring loaded latch. The bottom plate of the bucket can be rotated upwardly away from the base into an open position when the spring latch is not engaged with the ridge. The bottom plate of the bucket can also be rotated downwardly towards the base into a closed position wherein the spring latch is engageable with the ridge. The proximate end of the spindle can be rotated upwardly away from the base into a load position. The proximate end of the spindle can be rotated downwardly towards the base so that the proximate end of the rests on the catch in a dispensing position. The kit includes the device and a garbage bag roll. The method includes the steps of clamping, grabbing, gyrating, inserting, obtaining, revolving, rotating, securing, swiveling, threading, unclamping, and unwinding.
