I use a third party hotkey utility.

I would like to set one of its hotkeys to open the Recycle Bin.

Is there a Recycle Bin object or file in XP's folders which I can ask
my hotkey utility to open?
 
The following works for a command prompt or the 'Run' dialog...not sure of the specifics of your
3rd-party program.

Create a shortcut to the Recycle bin at the root of your c: drive with drag and drop.

the command line:

c:\<shortcut name>

will then open the recycle bin.

Right-click the Recycle Bin and select "Create Shortcut". Then assign a
Shortcut key for the Recycle Bin shortcut.

Why are you opposed to a shortcut?

How about:

explorer.exe ::{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
