At our trash can factory, the turnaround time for a custom color request typically ranges from 15 to 25 business days, depending on the specifics of your order. This timeline includes three key stages: color confirmation, production batch scheduling, and final quality inspection. When you submit a custom color request, our lab first creates a color sample—this usually takes 3 to 5 business days. Once you approve the sample, we slot your production into our existing manufacturing line, which adds about 7 to 12 business days. After production, we perform a thorough color consistency check and packaging, taking another 3 to 5 business days. If you need a faster solution, we offer expedited processing for orders above a certain quantity or for repeat clients, which can shorten the lead time to as little as 10 business days. However, urgent requests may require a small coordination fee to prioritize your run. We always recommend contacting our sales team with your target color code (like Pantone or RAL) to speed up the matching process. The exact turnaround can also vary based on the material of the trash can—for example, powder-coated metal bins may take slightly longer than plastic ones due to curing time. Regardless of the route, we keep you updated at every stage so you always know when your custom-color trash cans will ship.
