Where is the Trash folder located in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

The trash folder can be found at:

/home/username/.local/share/Trash

Replace username with your username.

The trash folder can also be accessed using the Graphical User Interface by opening the File Manager.

Once opened, press the key combination CTRL+H to view all hidden files and folders.

Open the .local folder, then the share folder and then finally the Trash folder.
