Rabbit Rubbish Bins

Paul Smith Garbage Cans Have Hares Helping the Environment

On May 28th, Paul Smith's Rabbit Rubbish Bin hit the streets of London for a trial run.

Shaped like a giant rabbit holding a garbage bag, this new waste basket will be on display at Covent Garden and Holland Park for a four-month trial period.

The Rabbit Rubbish Bin is also interactive. Every time garbage is thrown in the bag, the big bunny ears light up in celebration.
