rubbish bins
Waste collection vessels
Rubbish bins are containers for waste, the British equivalent of American trash cans or garbage cans.
The term covers everything from kitchen bins to the wheeled containers set out for municipal collection: Put the rubbish bins out tonight—collection is tomorrow morning.
In public spaces, rubbish bins are receptacles for litter.
