    This idea is done in the Netherlands for a very long time. Mostly for the kitchen where you use it under the sink. Then place things in that would clean your plates, kitchen or such. But can also have some space for a trash bag. It's super handy to have!
    Another option will be a tall version that would be having several baskets or planks to serve as pantry. Can make it about half size in with of what you made here, but it will hold quite a lot of grocies, pots, snacks or whatever you wish to have in there. Often they are about 30-40 cm wide though. Up to 2 meter tall.

    Exactly what I had in mind when I did my laundry room. Designed in sketchup, but we sold the house before it was done so it's a big open space. I wanted 4 hampers though, towels, whites, colors, delicates/hand wash. I also added huge shelves that held a basket for each family member for clean clothes, and a long bar to hang clothes that needed hanging. The counterspace was bigger than most kitchens. Including a custom counter over the machines that held laundry supplies custom built to lift right off while hiding the water lines.
    Some of my best, most memorable, and most usefull work besides the liquor/TV cabinet.

    From having a hose split and a washer pump failure which soaked the entire basement ruining several things I always keep a pan under the washer and have a vent to dump water outside in case another future failure. I used a 6 foot section of hose on the exterior with several layers of screen hose clamped on to keep critters and crawlies out.

    Not to steal your thunder, April, but for those of us less woodworker savvy (remember, I'm a plumber) you can do this with finished stock cabinets- you need to be willing to drive the loss prevention people mad as you go back and forth between their cabinet areas and the row where all the plastic buckets and waste baskets are. Another great project- and like some many really good things , fairly simple if a few details are paid attention to! FR

    Mechanical drawer slide alignment is what I always seem to screw up. Too much/little clearance between drawer and carcass. Slight Level/angle/skew error causing binding. Recognizing which part of the slide goes on the drawer. I've resigned myself to only "drawer in box" construction where the drawer rests on a full shelf.
    A medium review of proper drawer slide considerations, measurements, and techniques would be appreciated. Especially referencing specific models of hardware.
