kitchen bin solutions!

We are hoping to redo the kitchen.. :j:j:beer::beer::j:j
I currently have very few base cabinets, and am hoping to add an extra corner unit and a tall larder type unit, which will hopefully free up space under sink for a concealed bin type thing. Now-we currently have a 3 section stainless steel bin a bit like this can anyone recommend a built in type that would have a similar capacity (I think ours are 15l each, but would happily have 1 bigger one and 2 small ones) Am trying to make kitchen as uncluttered as possible-and the tall unit I want to add is where the bin currently lives. It can be moved, but I like the idea of hidden bins! :p

    In the last kitchen we fitted we cut a hole in the worktop so things could be scraped/poured straight into the bin - we had a big stainless steel funnel to guide the food, sorry I can't remember where it came from. The bin itself sat on a wheeled platform attached to the cupboard door which pulled out rather than swung. If you used a pull out with two shelves you could have a food waste bin at the top and recycling underneath.
