A wastebasket liner is configured to attach to an inner surface of a wastebasket so that the liner does not show conspicuously above a top rim of the wastebasket. The liner has an adhesive layer disposed on its outer surface at or adjacent a top edge of the liner so that the liner can be adhered in place within the wastebasket. One or more pull members are provided to assist in removing the liner from the wastebasket. Such pull member can be bonded to the liner, and has a free portion that is configured to be grasped by a user so that the user can easily pull on the liner to detach the adhesive from the wastebasket and remove the liner from the wastebasket.
