The Knife Amnesty Bin has been specifically designed to offer maximum safety and encouragement for the surrender of knives, blades and other harmful weapons.
The Knife Amnesty Bin is a purpose designed secure unit for the collection of knives, blades and other harmful weapons. Manufactured from durable galvanised steel, this bin is ideally placed against a wall and secured with high security locks.
Our new and improved knife amnesty bins are fitted with two internal heavy-duty lock bolts that are extremely high security. These internal locks will prevent any tampering, and our discreet key access is unrecognisable, preventing glue, picking tools or other means being used to break in.
Used by Police Constabularies across the UK, this robust bin features a 30 litre capacity galvanised steel liner. An internal baffle system and one way chute prevent items from being removed once they have been deposited inside the bin.

Our Galvanised steel products feature a 10 year anti-perforation warranty as standard. This guarantees the surface of our products from rusting through completely.

We manufacture all of our products from scratch at our factory in South Yorkshire. Each item is handcrafted to the highest specification, with lots of Wybone TLC.
We estimate that this item will be with you within 3 weeks from receipt of payment. Large quantity orders may be subject to an extended lead time during busy periods.
Orders placed before 1PM are processed the same working day, otherwise they are processed the next working day.
A knife amnesty is a police driven initiative to get knives and other sharp weapons off our streets. During a knife amnesty, people can hand in their knives at designated locations without any repercussions.
A Knife Amnesty Bin is a safe and secure way to collect knives and other weapons, whilst ensuring that there can be no access to the contents. The 30 litre capacity can allow for collection of multiple knives before it needs to be emptied.
The Wybone Knife Amnesty Bin is manufactured from strong and durable, premium galvanised steel. The 2mm hot dipped galvanised steel ensures a secure manufacture and makes the bin difficult to damage; this unit is built to last!
The Wybone Knife Amnesty Bin is manufactured with two extremely high security and heavy-duty lock bolts. These are internally fitted so as to not allow tampering, and with discreet and unrecognizable key access, they are difficult to access with glue, picking tools etc. This system prevents break-ins using bolt croppers and the stainless steel rod hinges have five point welded tie sections preventing unwanted access with crowbars or other prising tools.
An internal baffle system and one way chute prevents anyone from removing items once inside.
Depositing knives securely could not be easier with this unit; using the chute operation to the front of the unit, once an item is surrendered and deposited inside, it cannot be retrieved without secure access to the chosen method of locking. Internal steel panels (baffle system) ensure the items fall securely into the waiting galvanised steel liner.
The internal liner is fitted with a handle to the front, to make emptying easy and convenient, whilst ensuring no need to touch the contents.
Depending on your campaign, it is up to you where your Knife Amnesty Bin is placed. Many campaigns organise multiple bins to be placed at local police stations for security purposes.
We’re happy to powder coat your Knife Amnesty Bin in any standard colour. Most of our customers opt for red bins to draw attention to their presence, however we have also provided them in black. We can even paint them in green if you prefer!
The Wybone Knife Amnesty Bin comes as standard with pre-drilled holes for ground fixing. We recommend using rawl bolts to secure your unit, however we do have other fixing options available.
We recommend including a poster frame on the front of your bin. This will allow you to post artwork / posters to display information about what to deposit and the campaign you are running. The poster frame makes it easy to interchange your artwork with each campaign.
Once you have your knife amnesty bins in place, the power of social voice is a great way to spread the word about your campaign. We’re always happy to help, so feel free to Tweet us @litter_bins or tag us on Facebook and we’ll help spread the word to our followers!
We’d love to know all about your campaign, such as how many knives you’ve collected and what innovative ideas you’re using to dispose of your collected items.
We were fascinated by Project Zao, which took place in Derbyshire and saw the creation of an angel sculpture from a 6 week knife amnesty. (Read more here: http://www.derbyshire.police.uk/Safety-advice/Personal-Safety/Knife-Amnesty-Project-Zao.aspx) If you want to tell us about your campaign, we’d love to talk to you. Send us an email to [email protected] or give us a call on 01226 352333.
The Knife Amnesty Bin has a 30 litre capacity to ensure all items can be deposited safely and securely – without any unwarranted access and also so that it can be safely emptied without becoming dangerous or too heavy for the person collecting.
Simply unlock your unit and access the contents by operating the front opening door. The internal galvanised steel liner includes a handle to the front, to enable you to pull it out and take it to a secure location for sorting / final disposal.
Did you know that you can use your bin for collecting more than just knives and weapons? The secure manufacture and chute system on the aperture ensures items can’t be retrieved once they’re deposited. If you’re working in a large organisation or warehouse and have an issue with theft, we recommend using this bin for a theft amnesty – users can deposit their stolen goods before leaving the premises with no repercussions. The contents are secured by an ant-vandal padlock which can only be unlocked by an authorised member of staff to return the goods.
We’re happy to help and support your knife amnesty. Just give us a call on 01226 352333 or email [email protected]
