A trash chute is a large tube used to move trash to a central collection point. Most trash chutes have a square or rectangular door which opens like a kitchen cabinet or an oven door. Trash chutes have typically one door per floor for easy access. In terms of diameter, trash chutes range between 24 inches to 36 inches. Trash is placed inside the opening of the chute, which then falls into the basement or lowest level of the building. The concept of trash chute is more popular in large buildings and institutional settings such as hotels, offices, and hospitals. Thrash chutes are often the best method of collecting trash from around the building into a central location for easy pick-up and disposal.

Trash Chute – Dynamics
Rising awareness about efficient waste management systems boosting demand for trash chutes
Solid waste management is a global issue with over 90% of the waste openly dumped or buried in many low-income countries. Greenhouse gas being generated from solid waste is a key contributor to climate change. In 2016, over 5% of global emission was generated due to improper management of solid waste. Thus, demand for trash chutes is anticipated to proliferate with growing awareness about waste management. Additionally, trash chute systems are increasingly becoming popular in high rise buildings, both residential and commercial, as it saves considerable time required for dumping waste without such systems.
Lack of maintenance of trash chutes restraints the market
Poorly maintained trash chutes are a breeding ground for pests, bacteria, and other harmful contaminants. Duct systems are a perfect environment for the proliferation of mold, and bacterial and other harmful organisms if not properly maintained. This also results in odor, roaches, mice and rats etc. Additionally, lack of proper maintenance of trash chutes may also result in increased risk of fire. All these factors restrain the growth of the trash chute market.
