No more back-breaking work of sweeping and bending over—just tap the corner of the lid with your foot, and sweep debris away! Never again do the “dust pan dance” when trying to get that last line of dust and debris that doesn't ever seem to be able to be swept up with a dustpan and broom—the Skampcan has no obstruction and allows every last speck of debris to fall effortlessly into the container! With a Skampcan, you simply step on the lid to open, sweep dust and debris from your floor into the container, step on the lid again to close, and remove to empty when full. Our product is ideal for all ages, but especially convenient for elderly adults or individuals with limited mobility when attempting to bend down, like when sweeping. It's perfect for use in your kitchen, laundry room, mudroom, entryway, pet area, workshop, work station, work bench, recreational vehicle, RV camper, horse trailer, work trailer, or installed near fireplaces and wood stoves. Installation: The Skampcan is designed for installation into your wood, tile, laminate, concrete, etc. subfloor using an in-floor liner that comes included. A general understanding of carpentry, and how to safely use power tools is required for installation. You will need a tape measure, a marker/pencil, and a saw will be required; also, if desired location has a tile/ceramic or other hard surface flooring, special cutting tools will be needed. Detailed installation instructions included with product. Emptying: Simply step on the lid to open, pull the Skampcan out of the in-floor liner, empty, then replace the can back into the in-floor liner, then step on the lid to close.
