Using this trash can is super easy. Just place it in a spot where you need to dispose of waste, like between counters or under the sink. When it's full, lift it up (it's lightweight!) and empty the trash. Since it's made of plastic, cleaning is simple. You can use a mild soap and water to wipe it down. Remember, the lid is sold separately, so you'll need to buy it if you want one. Also, try not to overload it with extremely heavy items to keep it in good shape. With proper use and care, this trash can will serve you well for a long time.
