There's an easy solution, though, that will keep your ride tidy: the bestselling Hotor Car Trash Can. Right now, it's on sale for as low as $8 for Prime members.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

You can't put a price on a clean car, but for just $8 and change — just a few pennies above its all-time low — can you really go wrong? At this Prime-exclusive price, this car trash can is over 30% off, and it will keep paying off every single time you look at your spick and span, crumb- and wrapper-free car interior.

Why do I need this? 🤔

Far-flung coffee cups, random receipts and spills find their way into every nook and cranny of your car's interior, eventually turning it into a disaster zone. The Hotor mobile trash can gives you an easy place to dispose of wrappers, cups and the like, while the organizer pockets on its sides can hold tissues, wipes and cleaning supplies to tackle problems fast — before they become a sticky substance in the bottom of your cup holder. It also fits almost every type of vehicle. It's waterproof and has a 2-gallon capacity, but there's a 3-gallon version for a few more bucks.

If you need precious interior space for something else, this trash can folds up for easy storage (just make sure it's empty first). Speaking of which: You can use the Hotor strictly as a storage bin for things like chargers and snacks for long road trips. The inner lining is not only waterproof but easily removable. Just give it a quick toss in the washing machine and it's good as new.

What reviewers say 💬

This car trash can has nearly 34,000 five-star reviews on Amazon — and, honestly, we get the hype. Sometimes the simple things make the biggest difference!

Pros 👍

"I've had this for a year and I love it!" marveled one motorist. "It may look small, but I fit two grocery bags' worth of trash in this little can! I appreciate the adjustable straps on it as well, so I could perfectly fit it in my car."

"I tried three different car trash cans and this one fit my needs perfectly," testified another. "It looks good too. The bag blends right into my black interior so it isn't obvious. I hang it off the back of the center console and [it] is long enough to hang below the air conditioning vent for the back seat of my Honda CR-V. My dog really appreciates that!"

"I used to have receipts, food wrappers and all kinds of junk around my car," recalled a reviewer. "Since getting this bin, my car has been spotless. I mounted mine to hang behind my center console. Highly recommend."

Cons 👎

This customer had a particular nit to pick: "This is the perfect-sized trash bin for a car. I absolutely love it, only downside is it only comes with a few bags. Other than that, perfect buy for a loved one or self."

"My only complaint is that I wish they sold the trash liners that originally came with it separately, as I'd buy more of them!" said a five-star fan. "However, I've just been using it without a liner since I ran out and I haven't had any leaks or accidents at all."
