FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What the Trash icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The trash icon represents a symbol used to indicate the deletion or disposal of items. It is commonly used in digital interfaces to signify the removal of files, documents, or other digital content. The icon is often depicted as a trash can or bin, which is a universally recognized symbol for waste disposal.
The trash icon has numerous real-world applications, particularly in software and digital platforms. For instance, it is commonly used in file explorers, email clients, and social media platforms to indicate the deletion of files, emails, or posts. In popular platforms like Google Drive, Dropbox, or Microsoft Outlook, the trash icon is used to represent the trash or recycle bin, where deleted items are temporarily stored before being permanently deleted.
From a UX perspective, the trash icon communicates the action of deletion or disposal, helping users understand that an item is being removed or discarded. It provides a clear visual cue, allowing users to quickly identify the functionality of a button or link. The icon's use can also help to reduce user errors, as it clearly indicates the consequences of an action.
Trash is one of 1,275 icons in Pepicons Pencil, made by CyCraft and released under CC BY 4.0. It is drawn on a 20 × 20 grid.
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds TrashIcon to components/icons/pepicons-pencil-trash.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.
Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed TrashIcon 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.
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.
With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Trash icon, or any of 1,275 Pepicons Pencil icons, and install it from a prompt.
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.
Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 20 × 20 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.
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.
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", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. TrashIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <TrashIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.
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.
Yes, with credit: CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author (CyCraft) where you use the icons. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.
Yes. CC BY 4.0 asks you to credit the author where you use the icons, for example "Icons by CyCraft, CC BY 4.0" on an about or credits page.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
