Good, clean way to handle trash at a campsite.
I bought this to put directly next to the camp table for trash. I really like it. The lid keeps out yellow jackets and flies. The hard plastic surface is easy to wipe down before packing up again. If critters chomp on the bag to get at food, they aren't chewing through a collapsible trash can and ruining it. There's also no dirty collapsible trash can to pack back into your car (gross). The legs pack into the lid and it is small to pack. On uneven dirt or in high wind, it does tip. Use guy lines and tent stakes to prevent tipping, or bungee it to the table.. A little painter's masking tape is enough to make it sturdy enough to hold up to a bungee and comes off clean. I use compostable trash bags and they are more slippery than regular trash bags so I added some hot glue on the lip for traction. It all holds together fine when assembled, but the tubes pop apart while you put it together. I had some clear hair bands for braids I wrapped on the tubes so that they stick together while assembling. For the next trip I might buy a couple more, laminate some signs (cans, plastic, glass) and use clear bags for separating out recyclables. Read more
