Using this trash can is easy. Just place a standard 23 - gallon trash bag inside it. When it's time to empty, grab the handles at the bottom to lift and dump the trash. For indoor use, you can put it in any room like the living room, office, or kitchen. Outdoors, it's great for patios or in commercial areas. When cleaning, use a mild soap and water to wipe it down. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the plastic. Store it in a dry place when not in use to keep it in good condition.
