Abstract

A cigarette litter bin is provided that includes a mounting element and a receiver element. The receiver is in use, attached to the mounting element by a number of projecting formations engaging with a number of apertures. A biasing means biases the receiver away from the mounting element. The advantage of the bin is that it is faster to remove and replace the receiver from/onto the mounting element than know cigarette litter bins.
