I use a baby wipes container with pop up dispenser to put the lint from my dryer into. It holds quite a bit and when it's full I just open it up and dump into the trash and it's ready to fill again. Also it goes anywhere like in the car or camping, too. It is a great little recycled trash container.

Instead of just throwing your drier lint away do what I do and throw it in the garden where the birds will collect to help make their nests.
I use a Folgers coffee can; hold a lot.
I take my lint from the dryer and pack it lightly into an empty toilet paper rol. I stack them in an empty tissue box and when full, my husband takes them into his garage and uses them to light his wood in the wood stove.
Or you can add wax from old candles to make fire starters for your fireplace after you have collected all the lint.
I've heard that birds love dryer lint for their nests. You might want to save it up and put it out in the spring in some kind of net bag so they can "steal" it for their nests.
