Smoking-waste receptacle with disposable container

A receptacle for receiving smoking waste includes a base, a cap configured to be connected to the base, and a disposable container. The container is configured to be inserted into the base to receive and collect smoking waste. An opening in the cap permits a user to insert smoking waste. The opening connects to a passage which permits the smoking waste to fall into the disposable container. When the receptacle is to be cleaned or emptied, the cap is removed from the base and the container is removed. The container may be sealed shut and disposed of, preventing a user from lifting heavy buckets or touching any smoking waste.
