Meet Hobart ♥

Schnerd Type: Trash Schnerd
Schnerd Species: Land Schnerd
Hobart lives in a trash can, but don’t feel too sorry for him. He has trashcan dreams, an unshakable faith the universe has more in store, and he takes action to make those dreams real. He’s for anyone who’s starting over, rebuilding, or waiting for their moment.

Hobart might be your Schnerd if… ♥

  • You’re in the middle of a big change.
  • You’ve had to start over more than once.
  • You believe in yourself even when it’s hard.
  • You find beauty in unexpected places.
  • You could use a reminder that your moment is coming.

Love my Trash Schnerd!
Each Schnerd has a personality and a back story. A reminder to be present and loving to ourselves and one another. Just such a wonderful message of inclusion and sharing joy.

Trash Schnerd Review
The Trash Schnerd is a fun, playful, and soft addition to your collection. The bottom is weighted, so you can easily stand him up. You can also move his head and neck!

Questions about Hobart ♥

Read the plush materials and care FAQ

Who is Hobart best for?
Hobart is for people going through transitions: new jobs, new cities, new chapters. He’s a reminder that being in the "trash can" phase of life is just the beginning of something bigger.
What’s inside the box when it ships?
Every Schnerd ships with the plush itself, a Certificate of Adoption, a character story card, and an optional handwritten gift note if you’re gifting it. It ships in a Schnerds-branded box, with no additional gift wrapping needed.
Is it safe for young children?
Schnerds plush toys are recommended for ages 3 and up and are made from 100% polyester. They are not intended for children under 3 or children who still mouth their toys. Read the FAQ for details about weighted filling and character features before gifting.
What’s the return policy?
We offer a 30-day happiness guarantee. If your Schnerd doesn’t feel like home, reach out to us and we’ll make it right. No awkward questions asked.
How do I clean it?
Spot clean only with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. The embroidery and details need gentle care.

♥ Made with love in Brooklyn

Chris Zaccaria

“I made Schnerds because I wanted to create something that makes people feel less alone.”

Brooklyn, NY  ·  Warm Welcome Award, Toy Fair New York 2026

Left 20 years in corporate to make something with a soul. Born on a 114-foot mural in Belgrade, Serbia, Schnerds was Chris’s answer to a world that had forgotten how to be present with itself.

Practicing together. Not preaching.
