Motion-Sensor Trash Cans – Sanitary And Easy To Use

As we age, our hygiene sometimes takes a turn for the worse. It’s sometimes a chore to even get to a sink to wash one’s hands.

Touching a trash can full of germs is the last thing a senior citizen friend needs to worry about. That’s why a motion-sensor touchless trash can is a wonderful gift for your elderly loved one.

How long have Grandma owned her kitchen trash can? It’s typically not something most of us think about, but, if you look, I’m betting you’ll see a generic trash can circa 1950.

A trash can is a simple product that does its job, though there are plenty of options, such as slimmer trash cans, ones that match the color of your kitchen theme, or the trash can with a foot pedal where you don’t have to touch the dirty lid to toss something away.

And then, there’s trash cans on steroids. Enter….

Touchless, Motion-Sensor Trash Cans!

It may sound ridiculous or straight from a futuristic sci-fi, but this product is real. Forget about foot levers or easy-open lids, a motion-sensor touchless trash can opens with a wave of your hand – abracadabra!

Besides sounding like a fun thing to own, a motion-detection touchless trash can has some benefits that our regular trash bins don’t have:

• No need to interrupt cooking by having to wash one’s hands in the middle of food preparation and tossing something in the trash.
• Motion-detection trash cans are more hygenic than the typical trash can since you don’t have to touch any part of it to toss your garbage away.
• Power switches let you turn the trash can OFF so curious pets can’t figure out how to open the thing.

For its ease to use and its cleanliness, an electronic trash can is great for older adults.

I realize a trash can may not be the most glamorous appliance in your elderly loved one’s home. But, by upgrading that grungy old trashcan with a new sensor trashcan, you might be able to coax another dinner or two of your favorite foods from your favorite Grandma!
