A reusable, multi-purpose collection bin for waste collection, particularly at special events requiring waste collection such as concerts, festivals, sporting events, and any other outdoor or indoor event where trash collection is desired. The bin easily contracts simply by pulling upward on the top panels through the grasping holes on the top of the bin.

This invention represents a new way to bag yard trash. The yard trash Wrap is a more efficient way bundle larger sticks and tree limbs. The Yard trash wrap is a large heavy duty plastic sheet with four handles. It is placed flat on the ground, sticks and tree limbs are stacked in the Center area until the pile is large enough. Tie together the two handles On the right with the two handles on the left and the trash is bundled And ready to go to the curb.

The invention relates to a trash can (1) having an injection-molded plastic body (2) formed by side walls (3, 4, 5, 6) and a bottom wall (8) positioned relative to each other such that the side walls and the bottom wall together define a cavity (15) having an opening (17) opposite the bottom wall (8), each side wall (3, 4, 5, 6) integrally merging into the adjacent side walls at common corners (11, 12, 13, 14), and a stand strip (26) extending at least partially along edges (27, 28, 29) of a lower face (25) of the bottom wall (8) directed away from the cavity (15) is provided on the lower face (25) and has curved short stand-strip segments (30, 31) at some of the common corners (11, 12, 13, 14) joined to long stand-strip segments (32, 33, 34), characterized in that the curved short stand-strip segments (30, 31) are at least partially decoupled from the long stand-strip segments (32, 33, 34) by cutouts (35, 36, 37, 38).

The present disclosure describes a computer-implemented method for determining and reporting compliance with rules regarding discarded material from an originating site. The method may include obtaining, for each batch of a plurality of batches of discarded material, identification information of a respective originating site, capturing image data for each batch and associating the identification and image data. The identification and image data may be sent to a server having rules regarding the discarded material. The server may then determine data regarding compliance and generate a report including data regarding compliance with the rules regarding the discarded material for each originating site.

Systems, methods and devices are provided for tracking and managing waste or recyclable materials, which may include one or more devices enabled to capture and record information about waste material at a point in a distribution chain, as well as information technology systems for collecting, processing, analyzing and otherwise managing information about a large number and variety of streams of waste material.

A collapsible container has a collar that extends above the top opening and attaches at peripheral edges to a panel by a separable fastener.

A thermoplastic film which exhibits elastic-like behavior along at least one axis when stretched or elongated and then released. The thermoplastic film comprises a plurality of raised rib-like elements extending in a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the thermoplastic film. The thermoplastic film further includes a plurality of web areas positioned about the plurality of raised rib-like elements. The plurality of raised rib-like elements and plurality of web areas are arranged in a complex pattern. The complex pattern provides visual and tactile cues as the films are stretched or elongated. The complex pattern can cause the thermoplastic film to have a complex stretch profile.

A sanitary product disposal container includes a container housing having a movable housing top cover, a movable housing bottom cover, and a sensor. A cover actuating mechanism may operably engage the housing top cover to actuate the housing top cover between open and closed positions. The sensor may operably interface with the cover actuating mechanism to facilitate deployment of the housing top cover between the open and closed positions responsive to sensing the presence of a person in proximity to the container housing. Accordingly, a used feminine hygiene product may be placed in the interior space of the container housing in the open position of the housing top cover without having to touch the container housing in order to open the housing top cover. The housing bottom cover may be selectively opened to facilitate removal of the used feminine hygiene products from the interior space.
