Where do you put trash (beer cans) on boat?
 
I usually just use a plastic grocery store T shirt bag tied to the bow step and crush the cans. But when there is 6-7 people on board this doesn't cut it. I HATE clutter!!! Just curious as to how others handle trash. This weekend I am taking a plastic kitchen trash can and going to put it in the engine bay some how....hoping to screw it to the firewall. Even considering putting a can crusher on the fire wall as well....

1. Make sure used can is empty.
2. Place can on floor.
3. Make sure foot has a shoe on it.
4. Stomp can flat.
5. Dispose in trash bag.
6. Open new beer.

Available in white, black or safety orange!!!
 
I have used different methods, but seem to keep coming back to a 5 gal plastic paint buckets with a larger Lowe's, Home Depot, Northern Tool type of bag inside. 1/8" cord tied to the handle and through a hole in the lid to keep it from sailing away.

Amazing how many crushed cans fit and it can also be used as a seat.

Once I had one become flotson and it was easy to swing around and rescue.

I have also used one for dry storage for a weekend's worth of chips, smokes and tissue.

Even in the smallest of boats, they generally fit inside a hatch or well.

Tie a garbage bag to a grab handle but I have been eyeing up the camping style pop up garbage cans

smash them flat and put plastic trash bag,any cuddy hole you can find.i have a anchor locker between front seats works great.

I use one of those recyclable/reusable grocery bags you can get at a grocery store. The kind that have the hard plastic bottom and sometimes put a paper bag in it as well. Then I just pull off the boat and throw the entire thing in the recylcing bin.

My brother has an old boat and just puts his recylcing bin directly in the boat.

I have two lighted, self-rinsing trash containers on my CC.

I think others may refer to them as livewells. :D

(I obviously don't fish)

Switch to Vodka and just carry ice, bottle, mixer.

No mess - 1 reusable cup.

What if you live in a state where the cans are returnable and they cannot be crushed?
