The OED (http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/trash?view=uk) says the
Trash is North American, as is trash can
(http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/trashcan?view=uk). Rubbish
(http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/rubbish?view=uk) is defined as (in
this context) "1 waste material; refuse or litter." and a bin (again in
this context) is (http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/bin?view=uk) "1 a
container for rubbish."

I normally stand by the OED and would in this case. I'd say it should be
"Bin" or maybe "Rubbish Bin" in en_gb
