Trash-loving Muppet (5)
I believe the answer is:
oscar
'trash-loving muppet' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for oscar that I've seen before include "Comms code for "O"" , "Code word for O" , "Film industry award" , "academy's prize" , "Phonetic code for O" .)
