Welcome to The Pink Cart! These bright, bold rolling trash carts are a collaboration with the American Cancer Society ® to create a world with less breast cancer and more birthdays. Five dollars from the purchase of every Pink Cart goes to support the Society’s breast cancer awareness programs. Take a moment to explore our site – see if your trash hauler offers Pink Carts; read stories of women and their families who are fighting breast cancer; and read more about our program. Thank you for visiting our site, we hope you will join us in our effort to Kick Cancer to the Curb.
Order one for yourself; they come in three different sizes.
Pretty symbolic, I'd say, since breast cancer is nothing but trash!
I might just like this garbage can and the mind behind it. Brilliant!
ReplyDeletec'est vraiment tres original et pour une bonne cause
ReplyDeleteI don't think Ocala offers pink garbage carts. They do provide green carts for every home. We don't like within the city limits, however, so we've got to buy our own. A pink cart would probably not be allowed in Stone Creek, although I don't know any rule against it.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your comments about breast cancer. It seems everyone knows someone who has been affected by it.
They certainly liven up the yard as well as raising money for a great cause. Not sure we could have them in the UK as we already have colour coded bins- green for grass and veg, blue for card and paper etc. And each local authority seems to have different colour systems. Pink might confuse the masses!- a shame.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog by the way.

I have never seen these. Very worthwhile. I hope some overzealous and insensitive home owners' associations do not assert that all trash cans in the neighborhoods have to be the same color.
ReplyDeleteI love this idea!
ReplyDeleteUnusual and striking for the right kind of message!
ReplyDeleteGood idea Kate, every five dollars counts in the fight!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteThe colour certainly shows up at the curb! Seems like a great idea to me but my town provides containers for every household.
ReplyDeletePretty interesting, Kate.
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas Kate.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea. You can't miss that color!
ReplyDeleteFab idea!
