Trash Can : What is it?
| Trash cans are waste disposal containers used for containing garbage until it is collected. Usually made of plastic and steel, they can be open or come with lids that pop up by pressing the foot pedals they are made with. They can also be made to swivel in any direction. Trash cans can be set on floors, mounted on walls, or propped against solid surfaces. Mounted trash cans are best installed in rooms with limited floor areas. |

Base ring: Choose an indoor trash can with a base ring to prevent it from scratching your floor. A base ring is noncorrosive, and it does not leave ring marks caused by moisture on your floor.
Strapping kit: For outdoor use, choose a trash can that comes with a strapping kit, allowing it to be mounted to a post or on a wall. |
