: The one in your picture appears to show a pull-out drawer. If it were just a flap, anyone could put anything in. The drawer is designed to prevent this.
Also, cassetto doesn't mean flap.

drawer
Emmanuella's last reference in the discussion entries shows a container with a drawer (cassonetto con cassetto), which pulls open so users can insert items for recycling.

Emmanuella
: As mentioned by martini, it's not a proper drawer but an inner ' section'

Martini is wrong. These are not throw-in flaps - you need a card or smartphone to open them.

cassetto
hatch
On reflection, I would like to put this suggestion forward.
A hatch is both an opening and possibly a receptacle with some volume (as you can imagine in a some secure environment where items have to be passed from one zone to another).

My first assumption was wrong. That's why I tried to find the right document. That's what I did.
The one from Bologna supports Paul's contention that the cassetto is part of the cassonetto. The picture at the end is captioned 'cassonetto con cassetto'.
