Richiev great comment, as usual.

Oscar the Grouch had been waking up inside a garbage can for almost 30 years before 'Soldier' came out. I don't think it's going to be an issue...

Alright, how about this:
-----

"After awakening in a garbage dump and his android body malfunctioning, a detective has three days to find his missing family if they're to escape the dying Earth in a seed ship."

Be warned, Kurt Russel did a movie called "Soldier" where his character awoke in a garbage dump. (Completely different main character so you should be fine but you might want to check it out)
