🗑️ What Is a Smart Trash Can? — Description
A smart trash can is a waste bin with an automatic sensor and lid that opens and closes touch-free when it detects motion (usually your hand or trash) — so you don’t have to touch the bin at all. These use infrared or motion sensors to activate the lid quickly and hygienically, and many have sealed lids that help control odours and improve cleanliness.
They come in different capacities (small 7–12 L up to larger 30 + L) and materials (plastic or stainless steel), and are great for homes, kitchens, bathrooms, offices, and common spaces.
