The Final Say:

The Camco Collapsible Trash Can is a super easy way to bring a trash can with you on your next. This is a great alternative to simply hanging a trash bag in a tree or having it sit on the ground next to your kitchen.

This pop up trash can is great because it collapses down to only 2 1/2″, so finding space for it is super easy. Additionally, setup is very easy. Simply take it out of its bag, undo the 2 velcro straps, and you have an instant trash can. If you want an easy, space-saving way to bring a trash can with you, this is a great option.

The Full Review

Portability

The portability is one of the best aspects of the Camco collapsible trash can. The pop up trash can will collapse down to 2 1/2″ tall and is very easy to pack. This is a great camping trash can for those who don’t have a lot of extra space.

Size

The size is where this trash can comes up a little short (no pun intended). While the trash can is tall enough to function well, it would be nice if it was 6″ to 1″ taller. With that being said, the size is not enough of an issue to not use this trash can. It still functions well, it would simply be nice if it were a little taller.

Set-Up

Set up of Camco’s pop up trash can is super easy. Simply take it out of the bag, undo the 2 velcro straps, and place the stake through the loop at the base and into the ground. You can then place a trash bag inside, and you are all set to go. Really, this is a super easy trash can to set up.

Features/Extras

There are not many extras that come with the trash can, but it does have a couple that is nice. There is a zip-close lid which makes it nice to easily close up the trash can. Additionally, it does come with a stake to help keep the collapsible trash can in place. It would be nice if it had to stake point, but one still works.

Quality

Overall, this is a well-made pop up trash can. It is made of thick plastic, which feels like it will be able to handle some rough usage. The only thing that would probably improve the quality of the trash can would be if it were made out of canvas material. The canvas would give it even more durability, but the thick plastic still works well and is less expensive.
