Bag for rubbish wine on ship (3-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bin-liner

'bag for rubbish' is the definition.

'wine on ship' is the wordplay.
'wine' becomes 'bin' (a bin is a type of container for wine).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'ship' becomes 'liner' (liner is a kind of ship).
'bin'+'liner'='BIN-LINER'

(Other definitions for bin-liner that I've seen before include "Rubbish holder inside a rubbish holder" , "it's put in the trashcan" , "In Berlin (anag.)" , "Plastic rubbish bag" , "Rubbish sack" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
