Perché è feminine?

Poubelles is feminine because it derives from the surname of Eugène Poubelle, the 19th-century Parisian prefect who mandated garbage bins, and the word adopted the feminine gender of "boîte" (box), the noun it was paired with when first introduced. Like many French nouns, there's no deeper linguistic rule—it's simply an exception rooted in the historical naming convention and the grammatical gender of its closest semantic association.
