Rubbermaid is perhaps the company in North America with the most
name-brand recognition in this area: laundry baskets, garbage pails, buckets, etc. - the type of

impulsive, pragmatic moments you later deny.
Also, an industry absolutely without glamour or caché, lacking even the anti-glamour of something like sewage treatment. Registers a perfect zero on the consumer emotion index.
