An improved can compacting mechanism includes a can collection bin comprising a body having an integrally-formed and cylindrically-shaped sidewall. Downwardly from the cylindrical sidewall is a floor. The sidewall and floor are integrally formed into a single structure. Upwardly from the sidewall is a body neck and opening. The body neck is, in cross-section, a generally rectangular-shaped structure and the body opening is a generally rectangular-shaped aperture through which compacted cans are intended to pass as they drop by gravity from the can compacting mechanism of prior invention. The sidewall is a carrier for indicia applied to the sidewall or to a label or wrap that encircles the sidewall.
