That's a fantastic question! Yes, they absolutely exist and are becoming more common in forward-thinking cities. These aren't your average bins. I've seen models, often called "smart" or "hygienic" waste bins, that have an automated sanitizing mist system. Typically, after the lid closes following a deposit, a fine, often eco-friendly disinfectant spray is released inside the container. This isn't for cleaning the outside, but for controlling germs, odors, and pests within the bin itself. The main goal is to improve public health at high-touch points, reduce unpleasant smells that deter people from using them, and lower maintenance needs. You're most likely to spot these in high-traffic tourist areas, airports, hospitals, or upscale business districts where hygiene and aesthetics are priorities. While not on every corner yet, they represent a really interesting shift towards integrating public health tech directly into urban furniture. It makes you wonder what's next for our everyday city infrastructure!
Are there any urban trash cans with a built-in sanitizing spray?
