Abstract: A garbage can hitch includes a base section, and a grab handle coupled to the base section. An attachment arm is coupled to the base section, and attaches to a garbage can. A receptacle is disposed within the base section, and configured to receive a hitch ball of a vehicle. A semi-cylindrical well is disposed within the base section, and configured to receive a handle bar of the garbage can. A garbage can includes a sidewall. The garbage can may include a built-in hitch attached to the sidewall. The built-in hitch includes a base section and a receptacle disposed within the base section. The receptacle receives a hitch ball of the vehicle. The gravity-enhanced configuration provides downward levered pressure on the hitch ball when the garbage can is towed, such that the hitch is kept securely linked to the hitch ball, even when the vehicle drives over bumpy or gravelly roads.
