Bathroom Trash Cans and Wastebaskets

1. Since you shouldn't flush anything other than toilet paper down the drain (except for the obvious other stuff), you'll definitely need a trash can for Q-tips, tissues, and other assorted bathroom debris.

2. No modern bathroom remodel is complete without a stainless steel trash can. Available in polished or brushed finishes, these fancy bins coordinate with your faucet and other fixtures.

3. Shy bladders appreciate a casual, welcoming bathroom, and wood trash cans have that down-home look to put you right at ease.

4. Wicker trash cans are resistant to the humid environment of a bathroom and they handle the light duty task of tissue collection quite nicely. They also lend a tropical vibe to your spa-themed bath retreat.

5. Bathrooms are basically just germ parties, and wastebaskets are the punchbowl. Metal trash cans are easy to sanitize and are also quite durable, making them the ideal choice for a frequently used kids' bathroom.

6. Trash produced in a bathroom isn't any more attractive than trash produced in any other room of the house, yet people seem determined to put bathroom waste bins on display. Buck the extraverted trash trend by concealing your plastic bin in a cabinet.

7. If you don't have any cabinet space to spare or you have a pedestal sink, get a bathroom waste receptacle with a lid to keep rascally kids and pets out of your rubbish.

8. Bathroom trash bins are usually small enough that you can reuse plastic grocery bags as liners, saving you money while you save the environment.
