FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What the Trash Bin icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
What does the Trash Bin icon mean?
The trash-bin icon represents deletion containers, recycle bins, and waste management features in file management and operating system interfaces. Featuring a detailed waste bin or basket design, this symbol indicates trash folder locations, deletion destinations, and recoverable deletion zones across digital platforms.
Where is the Trash Bin icon used?
In modern applications like Windows Recycle Bin for temporary file deletion, macOS Trash for recoverable file removal, or cloud storage services like Google Drive for deleted file management, you'll see this icon representing trash containers and deletion staging areas. It appears in file managers for trash folder access, in system docks for deletion containers, or in cleanup utilities for waste management.
What does the Trash Bin icon tell users?
From a data safety perspective, the trash bin symbol communicates more than just 'delete' - it specifically indicates recoverable deletion, staged removal locations, and the safety mechanisms that allow users to restore accidentally deleted items before permanent removal.
Which library is the Trash Bin icon from?
Trash Bin is one of 458 icons in Akar Icons, made by Arturo Wibawa and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.
How do I install the Trash Bin icon with the shadcn CLI?
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds TrashBinIcon to components/icons/akar-icons-trash-bin.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.
How do I use the Trash Bin icon in Next.js or React?
Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed TrashBinIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.
How do I use the Trash Bin icon in Vue, Svelte or Angular?
Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.
Can my AI agent install the Trash Bin icon for me?
With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Trash Bin icon, or any of 458 Akar Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.
How do I change the color of the Trash Bin icon?
It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.
How do I change the size of the Trash Bin icon?
Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.
How do I change the stroke width of the Trash Bin icon?
Trash Bin is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.
Does the Trash Bin icon work in dark mode?
Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.
How do I make the Trash Bin icon accessible?
Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Trash Bin", so screen readers say what it does.
Can I pass aria-hidden or aria-label to the Trash Bin icon?
Yes. TrashBinIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <TrashBinIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.
Can I download the Trash Bin icon as SVG or PNG?
Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.
Can I use the Trash Bin icon in commercial projects?
Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.
Do I have to credit the author of the Trash Bin icon?
No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Akar Icons, Arturo Wibawa and the license.
Is the Trash Bin icon free?
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
Which other libraries have the Trash Bin icon?
