This wiki has been updated 28 times since it was first published in April of 2016. It's time to talk trash, but not the kind from those dreadful daytime TV shows. These bathroom cans and wastebaskets come in a variety of designs to meet everyone's personal tastes. All are functional, with some offering a touch of sophistication or technology that elevates them in some way. They're generally quite affordable, too. When users buy our independently chosen editorial picks, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

Editor's Notes

July 12, 2019:

Every bathroom needs a trash can, so why not invest in one that perfectly meets your household's requirements? Here, we've collected a diverse group of receptacles that range from purely functional to ornate and elegant. There are simple lidless options, as well as models that can be opened with the tap of your foot. Whatever your preference, there's a wastebasket in this list for you.

The LaMont Home Carter Collection and Creative Scents Dublin are two new additions chosen for their stylish, yet practical designs. By contrast, the InterDesign Pail and Kouboo Laguna have been removed due to questions regarding fulfillment and user complaints about quality.
