Seems I'm in the minority on this one. I say garbage can, and I'm pretty sure most New Yorkers say garbage can.

the dignified and refined terminology is shit bucket. any other term implies lack of culture and education.

If we're talking about the small indoor ones then I say Trash can. Garbage can feels like this:

Actually it's the opposite for me. Small indoor ones are garbage cans. But I would say trash bin for the picture you showed.

I think the poll is talking about the small indoor ones.

I say trash can. One funny thing though is that this doesn't happen with other trash/garbage related things, like a truck. Who says trash truck? :lol

I say both sometimes

At the same time? Seems redundant.

From NY, say garbage can for the thing you put on the side of the road, trash can for the little thing in the bathroom
