There are several reasons why sou see trash:/// as the URI instead of ~/.local/share/Trash/: 1. It is a virtual folder. It not only includes the actual files (from ~/.local/share/Trash/files/) but also the metadata (e. g. time a file was deleted, stored in ~/.local/share/Trash/info/). 2. If you have multiple partitions, there are several trash-folders on your system. The trash for an external USB drive is on that external drive, otherwise deleting files could take ages as they would have to be copied to your $HOME, which perhaps might not even have enough space left. All the different folders are presented as a single one in the virtual filesystem trash:///.
