kitchen bin

Indoor garbage container

A kitchen bin is a container for household waste, typically kept in or near the kitchen.

The term is standard in British English; Americans usually say trash can or garbage can.

Kitchen bins range from small countertop containers to larger floor-standing units, often with lids or foot pedals: The kitchen bin needs emptying.
