Tucked away on shelves and priced at just $6, the pop-up car bin became an unexpected hit.

Designed to be both compact and convenient, the collapsible bin measured 19cm x 16cm.

Shoppers found it easy to install behind a car seat, where it was big enough to be useful but small enough to stay out of the way.


It quickly earned a wave of five-star reviews from delighted customers.

‘Game-changer for the car...love this,’ one shopper wrote.

‘Definitely helps keep the car tidy and a nice size that doesn’t take up too much room,’ another added.

‘Works great! I have it sitting in the middle seat [as an] organiser for the kids! Fits small bags and does a great job,’ said one more.

The sleek black bin slotted effortlessly into the category of ‘things you never knew you needed’.

Its practicality and low price made it a standout in Kmart’s growing automotive range.

It wasn’t the only car accessory to catch the eye of customers either.


Earlier in the year, another small bin caused a stir—a $5 tube-shaped trash can for the centre console.

With a classic push-top lid and a sleek black design, it measured 20cm x 7.8cm and fit neatly into most car cup holders.

Shoppers also found it worked well when placed in side door pockets or between the back seats for easy passenger access.

The item joined other car-related releases from Kmart, including a $5 car snack holder and a $5 safety pack.


Across social media, fans praised both bins for their ability to keep cars tidy and clutter-free.

It was yet another win for Kmart in its long list of clever, affordable solutions.
