A waste receptacle has an outer cabinet housing and a waste or trash bag support frame that can be rotated about an upright axis to provide access to a bag held on the support frame. The support frame has a ring, on which a waste bag can be placed, spaced upwardly from the bottom of the support frame so that when the waste bag is full, it can be detached from the ring and dropped down for removal. A swivel assembly has a top portion secured to the bottom pan of the waste bag support frame, a lower portion secured to the bottom wall of the outer cabinet, and a ring of ball bearings which supports the top portion and the lower portion relative to each other such that the top portion and the lower portion can rotate relative to each other within the outer cabinet.

1. A waste receptacle assembly having a front and a back, the waste receptacle assembly comprising: an outer cabinet having a bottom wall and a top wall secured together by a rear cabinet wall extending between the bottom wall and the top wall, the rear cabinet wall positioned at the back of the waste receptacle assembly;a waste bag support frame separate from the outer cabinet comprising a bottom pan with a peripheral wall including an upright front wall at the front of the waste receptacle assembly and exposed on an exterior of the waste receptacle assembly opposite the rear cabinet wall of the outer cabinet and extending upwardly to a height below the top wall, the waste bag support frame also comprising a waste bag support ring supportively coupled to the upright front wall and extending rearwardly of the upright front wall, the waste bag support ring configured to support an upper end of a waste bag;a swivel assembly having a top portion secured to the bottom pan of the waste bag support frame, a lower portion secured to the bottom wall of the outer cabinet, and a ring of ball bearings which supports the top portion and the lower portion relative to each other such that the top portion and the lower portion can rotate relative to each other within the outer cabinet;wherein the waste bag support frame and the swivel assembly are configured and arranged such that the waste bag support frame and the waste bag support ring are maintained within the outer cabinet between the top and bottom walls and are rotatable within the outer cabinet about an upright axis to facilitate removal of the waste bag, after the upright front wall is rotated toward the rear cabinet wall, by releasing the waste bag from the waste bag support ring such that the waste bag can be dropped below the waste bag support ring at the front of the waste receptacle assembly. 2. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 1, wherein the outer cabinet is a curved outer cabinet such that the rear cabinet wall is a curved rear cabinet wall, and wherein the upright front wall of the waste bag support frame is a curved upright front wall. 3. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 2, wherein the upright front wall of the waste bag support frame is a part cylinder wall. 4. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 2, wherein the top wall has a cover attached thereto by hinged supports such that the cover is movable from a closed position to an open position, and wherein the upright front wall of the waste bag support frame extends to a height below the cover when the cover is in the closed position. 5. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 4, wherein a bottom edge of the cover is shaped to mate with the curved upright front wall. 6. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 2, wherein the bottom pan is a circular shaped bottom pan, and wherein the curved upright front wall is a semi-circular upright front wall which extends substantially 180 degrees around the circular bottom pan. 7. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 6, and further comprising a support flange mounted on the upper end of the upright front wall to supportively couple the waste bag support ring to the upright front wall. 8. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 1, wherein the swivel assembly is secured to the bottom pan of the waste bag support frame and to the bottom wall of the outer cabinet such that the top portion and the lower portion of the swivel assembly rotate relative to each other about an upright axis extending between the bottom wall and top wall of the outer cabinet. 9. A waste receptacle assembly having a front and a back, the waste receptacle assembly comprising: a curved outer cabinet having a bottom wall and a top wall secured together by a curved rear cabinet wall extending between the bottom wall and the top wall, the curved rear cabinet wall positioned at the back of the waste receptacle assembly, the top wall of the curved outer cabinet having a lid attached thereto by hinged supports such that the lid is movable from a closed position to an open position to put waste in the waste receptacle assembly;a waste bag support frame separate from the outer cabinet and comprising a bottom pan with a peripheral wall including a part cylinder wall at the front of the waste receptacle assembly and exposed on an exterior of the waste receptacle assembly opposite the curved rear cabinet wall and extending upwardly to a height below the cover when the cover is in the closed position such that a bottom edge of the cover mates with the part cylinder wall, the waste bag support frame also comprising a waste bag support ring supportively coupled to the part cylinder wall and extending rearwardly of the part cylinder wall, the waste bag support ring configured to support an upper end of a waste bag;a swivel assembly having a top portion secured directly to the bottom pan of the waste bag support frame, a lower portion secured to the bottom wall of the outer cabinet, and a ring of ball bearings which supports the top portion and the lower portion relative to each other such that the top portion and the lower portion can rotate relative to each other within the outer cabinet;wherein the outer cabinet, the lid, the waste bag support frame and the swivel assembly are configured and arranged such that the waste bag support frame and the waste bag support ring are fully maintained within the outer cabinet and are rotatable within the outer cabinet about an upright axis to facilitate removal of the waste bag, after the part cylinder wall is rotated toward a position in front of and proximate the rear cabinet wall, by releasing the waste bag from the waste bag support ring such that the waste bag can be dropped below the waste bag support ring at the front of the waste receptacle assembly. 10. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 9, wherein the bottom pan is a circular shaped bottom pan, and wherein the part cylinder wall extends substantially 180 degrees around the circular bottom pan. 11. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 10, and further comprising a support flange mounted on the upper end of the part cylinder wall to supportively couple the waste bag support ring to the part cylinder wall. 12. The waste receptacle assembly of claim 11, wherein the swivel assembly is secured to the bottom pan of the waste bag support frame and to the bottom wall of the outer cabinet such that the top portion and the lower portion of the swivel assembly rotate relative to each other about an upright axis extending between the bottom wall and top wall of the outer cabinet.
