I was at the Costco business center today and noticed some 32 gallon husky trash bins for alot cheaper than what I just picked up a couple brutes for. They even get the wheels separately.

Are they the same mold as a brute?! $24 for that bin and only $18 the dolly is a steal. Seems to be the same thickness as a brute. And the dolly looks similar too.

That’s a great deal, both items. And they have the classic round shape instead of the one with indents and curves that Brute changed to. I like the simple round ones better for mixing up salt.

I can confirm the wheels works with Brute cans.

Dang that’s a good deal. Which Costco business center is this?

Pretty similar dimensions

Huskee 22”D x 27 3/8” H
Brute 21.9”D x 27 4/5”H

I’m curious about the thickness too and if it’ll hold water well

Same thickness and feel. Missing the tabs that hild in the bag, but that's about it. I picked up a third to have on hand, tried my brute casters on it and it fit.

Handles on the brute are a little more rounded and have a better feel, but its on wheels anyway.

The casters work exactly the same.

My understanding was the main difference between the brutes and other kinds was the plastic type. My recollection being the Brutes were food safe, and are used by commercial kitchens for mixing.

Edit: looks like these are USDA approved; not sure if that means the same thing? https://www.costcobusinessdelivery....-can,-32-gallon,-gray.product.2001120474.html

Should be good

Edit: Did some further digging. Looks like every color of Brute container is certified to NSF Standard 21. The gray, white, and yellow models are also certified for NSF Standard 2.

The Huskee containers are both NSF 21 and NSF 2 certified.

Looks like you can buy the lid separately also from Costco
