Abstract
A receptacle assembly may include a body, a lid, and a liner dispenser positioned in an interior space of the body, such as on or near the inside surface of a rear wall of the body. In some embodiments, the liner dispenser has a first opening and a second opening. The interior liner dispenser can be configured to receive a package of liners from the interior space through the first opening and to dispense the liners (e.g., one at a time) into the interior space through the second opening. With the lid closed, the liner dispenser may be hidden from a user's view.
