Is the G-1 waste bin on the ERJ 175 fixed and not a cart?

The G-1 waste bin on the ERJ 175 is indeed a fixed installation rather than a cart. This design choice optimizes space utilization and enhances operational efficiency within the aircraft's cabin. Fixed waste bins provide convenient access for flight attendants during service and ensure that waste is securely stowed, minimizing the risk of movement during flight or turbulence.

Other configurations, such as carts, may not provide the same level of stability or accessibility, which is why fixed units like the G-1 are preferred in this design. This explains why stating that the G-1 waste bin is fixed is accurate, as it reflects the manufacturer’s design intent for improved service and safety within the cabin environment.
