Abstract: A recycling trash can includes a body, a top open end and a bottom open end. The body is made of cardboard and provided with a closed side wall and having multiple longitudinal seams and latitudinal seams formed on an outer periphery of the body to allow the body to be folded to be compact. The bottom open end has multiple bends formed on a peripheral edge of the bottom open end and each bend being separated from one another via a gap defined between two adjacent bends. Each bend is attachable to an adjacent bend via an adhesive agent applied to each of the bends.
