'Easy to clean'

"Hardly takes up any space and is easy to clean," one review reads.

"It hangs and stays up without an issue," reads another.

While shoppers have been enjoying this trash can as a way to keep their cars clean, some did note that it wasn't as sturdy as they had hooped. When empty, they found that it has a tendency to fold up and would benefit from some "support in bottom of the bag" to add a bit more structure.

Final verdict

For a simple and effective way to keep your car tidy, this compact trash can is a great choice — at least according to Amazon reviewers. It fits into multiple areas in the car, making it a versatile organization solution.

Choose to use it on its own or lined with a bag for added protection. Just take note that the soft exterior may not always hold its shape when empty.
