截至2020年12月底，公屋一般申請者的平均輪候時間是5.7年，市民長時間輪候只為有個安樂窩。苦候多年成功上樓的租戶多數都會選擇再裝修，當中不少房署本身提供的原裝新設備，就有機會因此被棄置。有市民就發現，一個垃圾站有大量疑似是新入伙公屋的原裝廚房鋅盆，因鋅盆全新未用，部分仍貼有保護膠紙，引起大量網民熱議，認為鋅盆被棄置是十分浪費。
一名市民在Facebook群組「50+友 精彩人生」發帖指：「政府公屋廚房十間九間公屋都拆洗菜盤 是否要改良 真的好浪費」隨帖附上一張照片，照片上清楚見到有大約40-50個廚房鋅盆，堆放在一個垃圾收集站中。發帖者指出，鋅盆相信是公屋原本入伙時已附有，當中有部分更疑似未開封，仍然貼著藍色保護膠紙。
帖文引起網民熱議，大部份網民都批評棄置鋅盆的住戶是浪費資源，有網民更指公屋住戶「富貴」，亦有網民指被棄置的鋅盆款式不實用，寧願自費更換：
