Artistry and craftsmanship are the hallmarks of the Disneyland Resort. Everything is beautifully done, including the trash cans. Take a look at these examples of detailed and hand-painted cans, each a work of art that helps tell the story of the setting in which it's found.
At Disney's California Adventure, we travel from a bug's land with art inspired by the Disney-Pixar film a bug's life to the shores of Paradise Bay and the brightly-colored cans of the Paradise Pier oceanfront park. Near Mulholland Madness, it's the story of California car culture, where road signs and related graphics are most appropriate. Step around the bend into Golden State, and you'll first find yourself in the Grizzly Peak Recreation Area, styled after the National Parks of California. Further still, the area becomes Condor Flats, the Mohave desert headquarters for breakthroughs in aviation with cans inviting you and your fellow pilots to "Drop Your Debris."
Across the esplanade at Disneyland, the cans are more traditionally painted, but no less beautiful. From the filigree of Main Street and Fantasyland to the tropical prints of Adventureland and the refined lines of New Orleans Square, the work on the trash cans throughout Disneyland Park is top notch. It's especially interesting to see how the Jiminy Cricket icon has been worked into designs on recycling bins... completely original designs that complement the adjacent trash cans, but are unique unto themselves.
