TL;DR: Get the helpful Townew: The World’s First Self-Sealing & Changing Trash Can (Value Pack) for $105, a 12% savings. 


In a perfect world, the trash would take itself out and we’d never get our hands dirty. And while that doesn’t exist (yet), we now have the next best thing: the world’s first self-sealing and changing trash can.

Meet the Townew. It’s a trash can designed to make your life easier. Not only does it seal in those festering odors from raw chicken trimmings and rotting fruit, but it also seals and changes the bag for you. The refill ring houses 25 trash bags, so when one is removed, it automatically installs a new one in its place. All you have to do is press a button, wait a few seconds for the Townew to seal up the trash bag, and while you go throw it in the dumpster, it replaces the bag for you. Boom. The dirty work is done.

This baby is also smart enough to detect when the can is overflowing, which definitely happens to you, even if you don’t want to admit it. In this case, it will lift the entire top compartment to seal the bag without spilling over. Plus, it has a motion sensor, so it will open up for you when you approach it. Need it to stay open longer? Just tap the button and the lid stays open until you tap it again. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see why this life-changing trash can raised nearly $148,000 on Indiegogo. Heck, it’s already funded, and we’d donate anyways.

Right now, you can slash a few bucks off the Townew Trash Can and pick one up for just $105.
