Bin

A dustbin was a small, cylindrical container for rubbish, used on Earth.

In 2050, K9 Mark 2 fell into a dustbin when he was disabled by Dauntless Prison's defences. (TV: Liberation) Frobisher fell into a dustbin when he was attacked by an owl. He took the form of a burger but was nearly eaten by a tramp. (COMIC: The Shape Shifter)

Daleks were frequently compared to dustbins by their enemies as an insult. Dortmun called the Daleks "motorised dustbins" during the 22nd century invasion of Earth. (TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth) Jane Davis-Hunt decried the Dalek Supreme on Balbo as a "gold-plated dustbin". (AUDIO: Poison of the Daleks) The Ninth Doctor later called the last Dalek "the great space dustbin." (TV: Dalek)

Other forms of rubbish containers were used on Earth, such as the larger, street-collected bins. (TV: Rose)
