Some enemies like [[Faiachū]] cannot be defeated by bins, however. Once a bin hits an enemy, it falls off-screen.

Certain bins are actually alive; once Mario tries to pick these types of bins up, they rumble, grow feet, and reveal eyes from under the lid. They then wander around aimlessly and can defeat Mario if they knock into him. Mario can safely stand on top of them, but they cannot be lifted normally in their debut appearance. This variation first appears in [[Big-City]] and [[Mario Toy Company]], after their harmless counterparts are introduced.
==History==
===''Donkey Kong''===
In the [[Game Boy]] remake of ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'', Trash Cans are first encountered in the [[Big-City]]. They appear as seemingly inanimate objects that [[Mario]] can use to reach higher areas, or pick them up and throw them to defeat common enemies like [[Bowbow]]s. Once a Trash Can hits or is hit by another object or enemy, it falls off-screen.


In the rendition of ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' included in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and the [[Super Mario Advance (series)|''Super Mario Advance'' series]], garbage cans may appear in the ''Mario Bros. Battle'' multi-player mode. It takes the place of the [[POW Block]] in the ''Mario Bros. Classic'' single-player mode, but it cannot be picked up and remains in place on the ground; however, it flips its lid on intervals. If a player approaches it while carrying another player, it will open and automatically close if thrown inside. If players get trapped inside, they can escape using a [[Super Jump]] (which can daze a player standing on it) or merely [[Jump]]ing when the lip reopens. In addition, players will be randomly holding [[Red Shell|Koopa Shell]]s, [[POW Block]]s, [[Fish Skeleton]]s, and [[Egg]]s (which in itself can contain [[Coin]]s, [[Heart (item)|Heart]]s or [[Super Star|Starmen]]).
Certain Trash Cans, called [[Bucket Man|Dust Men]], are enemies.


Trash Cans can be collected from [[Item Box]]es in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]''. Here, the item is inanimate and consists of three small red, green and blue fruit cans strung together. They perform lock on shots onto another racer, and serve to slow down the competition.

Garbage Cans return in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' with the same function as in ''Donkey Kong'' for the Game Boy. They are introduced in [[Level 1-1 (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)|Level 1-1]] of [[Mario Toy Company]], once again as elementary objects that Mario can use as means of attack or as platforms. Colored variants of Garbage Cans also appear in certain boss battles against [[Donkey Kong]] like in [[Level 1-DK]], with the spawned color corresponding to the [[Color Switch]] that is currently pressed at the time. Once another Color Switch is pressed, any existing colored Garbage Cans of the inactive color will disappear except for ones currently being held by the player.

Bins,[1] also known as Trash Cans[2] (or trash cans)[3][4][5] and Garbage Cans[6][7] (or garbage cans),[8] are objects commonly found in urban areas that appear in various capacities throughout the Super Mario franchise.

History[edit]

Donkey Kong[edit]

In the Game Boy remake of Donkey Kong, Trash Cans are first encountered in the Big-City. They appear as seemingly inanimate objects that Mario can use to reach higher areas, or pick them up and throw them to defeat common enemies like Bowbows. Once a Trash Can hits or is hit by another object or enemy, it falls off-screen.

Certain Trash Cans, called Dust Men, are enemies.

Mario Bros. (Game Boy Advance)[edit]

In the Game Boy Advance version of Mario Bros. included in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and the Super Mario Advance series, Garbage Cans appear in the Mario Bros. Battle 2-player mode. A Garbage Can takes the place of the lower POW Block, but it cannot be picked up and remains in place on the ground; however, it flips its lid at intervals. If a player approaches it while carrying another player, it will open and automatically close if thrown inside. If players get trapped inside, they can escape using a Super Jump (which can daze a player standing on it) or merely jumping when the lip reopens. In addition, players will be randomly holding Koopa Shells, POW Blocks, Fish Skeletons, and Eggs (which in itself can contain coins, Hearts, or Starmen).

Mario vs. Donkey Kong[edit]

Garbage Cans return in Mario vs. Donkey Kong with the same function as in Donkey Kong for the Game Boy. They are introduced in Level 1-1 of Mario Toy Company, once again as elementary objects that Mario can use as means of attack or as platforms. Colored variants of Garbage Cans also appear in certain boss battles against Donkey Kong like in Level 1-DK, with the spawned color corresponding to the Color Switch that is currently pressed at the time. Once another Color Switch is pressed, any existing colored Garbage Cans of the inactive color will disappear except for ones currently being held by the player.

Their live counterparts, now called Bucket Men, also reappear.

Mario Kart Arcade GP[edit]

Trash Cans[9] can be collected from Item Boxes in Mario Kart Arcade GP. Here, the item is inanimate and consists of three small red, green and blue fruit cans strung together. They perform lock on shots onto another racer, and serve to slow down the competition.

Super Mario Odyssey[edit]

Bins appear in the Metro Kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey. They are often found in dark alleyways, accompanied by garbage bags. Hitting a bin with a Cap Throw or with a Ground Pound yields a single coin.

Luigi's Mansion 3[edit]

Trash Bins[citation needed] are commonly found all across The Last Resort in Luigi's Mansion 3. The player can search them and collect the money that spews out of them or destroy them by pulling on them with a Suction Shot and collect the money that way.

Additionally, an enemy, the Possessed Bin, also exists in the game.

Mario Golf: Super Rush[edit]

Bins make minor appearances in the New Donk City golf course in Mario Golf: Super Rush.
