Here are some ideas that are occuring to me:
A diaper disposal pail with a self-latching lid (odor control) with a foot activated lid opener.
A car jack which is already assembled (maybe with an electric motor with a long cord to cigarette lighter), and easy to use at night.
A garbage compactor.

Maybe two types of garbage compactors:
one for things to be recycled, and one for all the rest.
