TrashScan was founded by Aaron Cannon, Andrea Morgan and Tara Walters. The company is dedicated to producing innovative home products using 100% recyclable plastic and manufacturing in the USA. Their current product is a trashcan with a built-in scanner, and future products may include voice command trashcans, trashcans with basketball hoops, and knife blocks that automatically sharpen knives. The company plans to partner with online grocery stores and retailers like Bed Bath & Beyond. Their strategy is to target homeowners making $30,000-$40,000 through marketing like spots on QVC and developing new products while maintaining a research team and benefits for customers and employees.
