So a plastic bag for garbage isn't good enough for your car?
Image: Re-Purposed Car Trash CanHow using about a plastic cereal storage container? Just add a small trash bag, and snap the lid back on!
Even cheaper (assuming you use this product) - a recycled Cascade dish soap container?
Just Mod Podge on a pretty fabric or stick on some contact paper!
What large size plastic container in your house could you recycle into a car garbage container?
