- But how do you actually do it?
- How to calculate the gallons of a trash can?
When you are out looking for a trash can you might want to compare it to the ones already present in the house to make sure to make the right decision about the space available in the new trash bin you will be getting.
Calculating the gallons of a trashcan can be a technical or mathematical task, but it is surely not hard. The easy way is to get the garbage bags of different sizes and try and fit them into the bin. While you might not get the accurate count of the gallons in the trash can, you will at least get the basic idea of how much gallons your trash can has.
The net weight, height and other dimensions is what decides the space of the trash can. The amount that a trash bin holds is also specified in litres to give you a better idea of much the trash bin holds. For example a standard 13 gallons trash can holds up about 50 litres, which weighs around 110 lbs.
