Here, they call trash “rubbish.” My landlord left an informative note on “rubbish disposal.” I automatically associate rubbish with Merriam Webster’s definition 2:
something that is worthless or nonsensical-
example: Few real masterpieces are forgotten and not much rubbish survives.
Initial response: rubbish is crap, not trash—you know—the stuff in the rubbish can.
