Infrared Trash Cans

An infrared trash can is the perfect home trash can for germaphobes. It is also very effective in a setting where you don’t want to be anywhere near what you’re throwing away. Think doctors’ or dentists’ offices and you’ll understand why they can be so invaluable. Their appeal is in the fact that they open automatically – rather than press a pedal or manually lift, all you have to do is wave your hand over the top of them. This keeps a constant, healthy distance between you and your trash. It also is great for kids, especially 3-5 year olds, as it makes taking the trash out fun.
