Abstract
A trashcan can be configured to fit into the corner of a room. The trashcan can have a foot pedal that is connected to the lid of the trashcan such that a user can open and close the lid with the foot pedal. The trashcan can be configured such that the lid pivots about an axis that is generally parallel to one of the walls when the trashcan is positioned in the corner of a room. Additionally, the trashcan can include a dampening mechanism which includes two apertures having axes that are skewed relative to one another. This allows the pedal bar and associated lifting rod mechanisms to pivot about the appropriate axes to provide smooth and low friction operation.
