PHOTOS, VIDEO: Beloved Electric Umbrella Talking Trash Can Finally Returns to EPCOT

Its been two and a half years since we last saw the talking trash can at the Electric Umbrella in Future World, which has since been gutted and turned into the Connections Cafe & Eatery in World Celebration. While the can didn’t return to Connections when it opened in April, we finally found the can today in a rather out of the way spot — the Odyssey Pavilion!

Right behind a rather inconspicuous wall, right near the pavilion’s entrance is where you can find it now.

The can is blue on the sides and silver on the front and back, with the EPCOT logo on the front.

It’s received a makeover since we last saw it in the Electric Umbrella two and half years ago, with it formerly in red with pink squares at the bottom.

Although there weren’t any changes to the voices from before when it was Electric Umbrella, with its 1990s charm still there as always.

We’re happy to see this fun piece of EPCOT was saved and returned to the park, where hopefully it will stick around for a long time. Are you excited to see the talking trash can back? Let us know in the comments below!
