ABSTRACT:
A combination trash can and vacuum cleaner in which the base of a trash can contains a battery operated vacuum cleaner that is activated by any one of a number of foot pedals. The vacuum is contained in a housing with an internal fan, a debris collection chamber, and an electrically controlled trap door for emptying debris. The device allows for in-room storage of a vacuum cleaner in an aesthetically pleasing manner and for the collection of debris without the need for a dustpan and/or a conventional vacuum cleaner.
