The city of San Francisco could spend $20,000 on a trash can.
It could be the first of thousands like it, but officials say others would cost less.
In the current cans around the city, trash goes in, but much too often comes out.
“They go looking for drugs. They go looking for things to recycle,” said resident Isaac Stevens. “In the neighborhood I live in, they bust them open. They pull things out, and sometimes they get too full.”
Sleeker designed bins with sensors alerting crews when they’re almost full will be more tamper-resistant, block rodents out and keep sidewalks cleaner.
Many, including Matt Haney with the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, think $20,000 for a trash can sounds ridiculous.
“It’s insane,” said Fred, a city resident.
The costly cans even flaunt designer names.
