LEGO set 70805 “Trash Chomper” depicts a refuse collection vehicle from the world of The LEGO Movie.

The model reflects the urban, exaggerated style used throughout The LEGO Movie range. “Trash Chomper” is not a main location set, but a supporting vehicle that broadens the film setting with a work crew and a recognizable city service role. It helps represent the everyday background of the movie’s world.

The build focuses on a stylized garbage truck, with an identifiable cab, a solid body and a rear area associated with collection work.

It suits play in city scenes as well as display within a The LEGO Movie collection. Compared with larger story focused sets from the same theme, it works as a complementary vehicle with specific minifigures. Collectors may value it for filling out the film’s setting beyond the central cast and major locations.
