PROBLEM

Humans spend too much money on trash bags.

SOLUTION

A bagless trash can and dumpster system with a cantilevered dump mechanism. Roll it out, lever it up, done. The bag is now your enemy's problem, not yours.

components

A rolling base module for ground-level transport of heavy containers. Sized and rated for uneven pavement, curb transitions, and the general hostility of outdoor surfaces. Operable by anyone including people who have been told not to lift heavy things.

Inspect

A rigid bar that pivots around a fulcrum to amplify force or motion.

Inspect

A flat receiving surface that cradles the trash can during the dump cycle. Accepts the can, locks it in place, and works with the cantilever arm to invert it in one smooth motion. Stays clean because nothing sticks around long enough to accumulate.

Inspect

A counterbalanced mechanical arm that raises, tilts, and dumps the loaded platform in a single lever pull. Converts a small input force into a large lifting motion via classical cantilever mechanics. Physics doing the heavy lifting so you don't have to.

Inspect

A collection and filtration system that captures liquid runoff from organic waste during the dump cycle. Processes City Chili nugget juice for elemental and biological extraction. Nothing useful leaves the system without being accounted for first.

Inspect

A photovoltaic collection surface that converts ambient sunlight into usable electrical energy. Powers the Pro tier motor, the recycler, and whatever else needs electrons. Works best outdoors, which is exactly where this product lives.

Inspect

Converts electrical energy into mechanical motion.

    "solution": "The Bash Can is a trash can and dumpster combo meant to reduce the cost of purchasing plastic trash bags and their impact on the environment. The trash can has wheels which can easily be pulled outdoors by anyone including handicapped people. The dumpster portion has a large lever and platform to raise and dump the trash can in one, single, fast and easy cantilevered motion. The Bash Can Recycler uses water to collect all the juice from City Chili nuggets for elemental and biological extraction. Upgrade to the Pro version and utilize solar energy to power the entire contraption, including an optional upgraded trash can with an electric motor so you no longer have to exert any calories to throw your life away.",
