Car trash disposal

How do you dispose of any trash you have in your vehicle? Do you have one of those special car trash things, or just a bag, or do you throw it in the bed (which I never understood).

I never had much trash so it was either a small plastic shopping bag, or just leave it on the seat until I stop

I use a plastic bag from wal*mart to put trash in. I have never thrown trash in the bed.
I usually clean mine out on a daily basis....but then I don't accumulate much trash. Now my g/f in her xterra......that's a different story.

I fi don't have anywhere to put it i will throw it in the bed, my friends seem to think it's a trashcan. I usually just clean out the bed every couple of weeks, there usually ain't alot.

I don't like to throw it in the bed 'cause there's too much chance of it blowing out and I don't like to litter, but since I now have a supercab, I have all this space behind the front seat where I can let stuff accumulate. When it reaches the level of the windows and it starts to block my view, I know it's time to clean it out! That's where the plastic trash bags come in handy! No actually, I don't let it get that bad, I just sort through and clean it out every couple 'o weeks, using plastic shopping bags to sort it into. -TD

I usually throw any trash I have in my Excursion out at the next available trash can or dumpster. But then the Ex is new so I want to keep it that way for as long as possible!

As soon as I hit the next stop and get out, so does the trash, except for the fact that my truck sounds like a wind chime for all the empty bottles rolling around in the bed come Sunday morning, I don't leave much garbage in my ride. Some of the customer cars I work on, sheesh. I think these people live out of them, which is REALLY disturbing. Downright nasty is what it is....

i usually dont let trash pile up in my truck if i have like a bottle of sumthin then ill throw it in the bed but thats about it other wise it goes on the floor board and when i get out so does it, but if im drivin down a side road and no ones behind me ill pull up to some random trash can and throw it all away 2 ppl have yelled at me for this and i asked them if they rather me put it in there trash can or all over there front yard, they didnt have nething else to say, but normally i do keepmy truck clean, having trash everywhere just bugs me actually just having nething ne everywhere bugs me if i need it or not.
Peace
Don

I usually throw out whatever trash in the car at the end of the day at home, gas station or such. Nothing special.
