Trash can (Fallout 4)

The trash can is a world object in Fallout 4.

Characteristics
Pre-War trash cans are found throughout the Commonwealth, generally as street furniture near buildings. They are metal, painted green, with chrome side plates and a sliding handled lid to the front. The word 'Trash' in faded lettering is written above. As with most post War items they are worn and rusty, though the lid still functions and will slide forward when opened.

As a container it can be interacted with and will contain randomised minor loot. They respawn, therefore it is not safe to store items inside. Note there is another identical version of this trash can which is empty and does not spawn loot, therefore not every Pre-war style trash can will have loot.
