A waste container is a container for temporarily storing waste, and is usually made out of metal or plastic. Some common terms are dustbin, garbage can, and trash can. The words "rubbish", "basket" and "bin" are more common in British English usage; "trash" and "can" are more common in American English usage. "Garbage" may refer to food waste specifically (when distinguished from "trash") or to municipal solid waste in general. In 1875, the first household rubbish bins were introduced in Britain to create a regulated system of collection.

Curbside dustbinsEdit

In many cities and towns, there is a public waste collection service which regularly collects household waste from the curbside. This will be loaded into a garbage truck and driven to a landfill, incinerator or crush facility to be disposed of. Household curbside waste containers are usually either:

trash cans, receptacles made of metal or plasticwheelie bins, light, mobile plastic bins[1]

In some areas, each household has multiple bins separated into different categories (usually represented by colours) depending on its suitability for recycling.[2]

Commercial curbside waste containers are often larger dumpsters or skips.

Public litter binsEdit

Public areas, such as parks, often have litterbins placed to improve the social environment by encouraging people not to litter. Such bins in outdoor locations or other busy public areas are usually mounted to the ground or wall to discourage theft, and reduce vandalism, and to improve their appearanceare sometimes deliberately artistic or cute. Some trash cans have plastic bags to help contain liquids.
