I addressed this problem by accessing the Rubbish Bin from Thunar File
Manager (Applications > System Tools > Thunar File Manager).

It would be more convenient to have a Rubbish Bin readily visible.

I tried Alt-right clicking on the panel, but nothing happened.

Is there another way to make the trashcan applet visible on the desktop?

Title:
  No way to empty trash in gnome-fallback

Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  There doesn't seem to be a way to empty the trash if you're using
  gnome-fallback (with Ubuntu 12.04). This is easily remedied by alt
  right-clicking a panel and installing a trashcan applet but it would
  be nice if it were there out of the box.
