- danwills 5y agoAgreed, although this particular type of bin also gets called a "Wheelie Bin" (or perhaps "Wheely Bin"? not sure how to spell it actually..) a lot, at least in South Australia.
- adamjb 5y agoYeah, my rubbish bin's in my kitchen, thank you very much
- crashbunny 5y agoWhere's your bin? "I's been on holidays" No, No. Where's your wheelie bin? "OK, OK, I's really been in gaol"
- KineticLensman 5y agoIn the UK they are colloquially referred to as dustbins. My local council formally refers to them as rubbish bins and their contents as rubbish or waste [0]. The term wheelie bin is used when they do in fact have wheels (ours don't). Very few Brits would call them trash bins or trash cans.
