How to use «Trash can» in context?
When thinking about what to do with something that is not wanted or no longer needed, many people might think about throwing it away. From paper products to plastics, there are a lot of different things that can go into the garbage. However, there are also many different things that can be recycled. When it comes to the garbage, there are three main types of waste that need to be dealt with: packaging, food waste, and garbage.
Packaging waste can come from many different sources and can include anything from cereal boxes to plastic bottles. Although there are many different ways to recycle packaging, the majority of it is recycled into new products.
The way Reverse Dictionary works is pretty simple. It simply looks through tonnes of dictionary definitions and grabs the ones that most closely match your search query. For example, if you type something like «longing for a time in the past», then the engine will return «nostalgia». The engine has indexed several million definitions so far, and at this stage it’s starting to give consistently good results (though it may return weird results sometimes). It acts a lot like a thesaurus except that it allows you to search with a definition, rather than a single word. So in a sense, this tool is a «search engine for words», or a sentence to word converter.
I made this tool after working on Related Words which is a very similar tool, except it uses a bunch of algorithms and multiple databases to find similar words to a search query. That project is closer to a thesaurus in the sense that it returns synonyms for a word (or short phrase) query, but it also returns many broadly related words that aren’t included in thesauri. So this project, Reverse Dictionary, is meant to go hand-in-hand with Related Words to act as a word-finding and brainstorming toolset. For those interested, I also developed Describing Words which helps you find adjectives and interesting descriptors for things (e.g. waves, sunsets, trees, etc.).
In case you didn’t notice, you can click on words in the search results and you’ll be presented with the definition of that word (if available). The definitions are sourced from the famous and open-source WordNet database, so a huge thanks to the many contributors for creating such an awesome free resource.
Special thanks to the contributors of the open-source code that was used in this project: Elastic Search, @HubSpot, WordNet, and @mongodb.

Let’s just consider the container where we throw our garbage.
In the Continental U.S., the two most common generic terms for these containers are trash can and garbage can. If you don’t want to specify, these will always be understood for what they are: a place to throw your garbage.
Whether you will hear garbage or trash, is a regional and age-related matter.(ref 1)
Garbage can is most likely to be heard in Southwestern New England (All of New York state and Connecticut), New Jersey, parts of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Illinois, and then all Northern States from Wisconsin to Oregon as well as parts of Utah and Nevada.
In all other parts of the U.S., including all Southern States, most people will say trash can.
In addition, according to Josh Katz¹
Since the 1950s, trash can has become increasingly common in American speech. Two in three people born in the 1990s would say trash can over garbage can.
As for the several pictures shown by the OP, 1,2 and 3 are trash cans, Number 4 can be found in supermarkets and retail stores under the name of roller bins
Number 5 is a trash cart.
Different models abound so it’s not always easy to tell 4 from 5.
In Britain, it’s a completely different matter and dustbin is one of the generic terms.
