It's not the most exciting accessory for your kitchen, but it's undoubtedly one of the most necessary. We all need and use a trash can in our kitchen several times daily. But often the purchase of one is an afterthought. But should it be? A kitchen trash receptacle can be functional, odor proof, lidded, or not-lidded. It can have a stylish design, be made of metal or plastic. It serves an essential role in your daily life, so shouldn't you pick out the one that works best?
Surprisingly, one of the best places to shop for everyday items for your household is Walmart.com. The online site has way more options than any individual store does, and has the great pricing they're known for. We were curious to see what they might have in the way of kitchen trash cans and found quite a few we thought would work out well for any kitchen.
