Abstract
A trash can for the collection and disposal of trash is disclosed. The trash can includes a base and a separable sidewall allowing for easy removal of a bag from the trash can by lifting the sidewall around the bag, rather than lifting the bag through the top of the trash can. The base includes a pair of straps that allow a user to carry it. The sidewall includes recesses that are positioned and adapted to receive the pair of straps when the sidewall rests on the base.
