Every well on every piece of labware has three addressable positions: top, bottom, and center. The position is determined by the labware definition and what the labware is loaded on top of. You can use these positions as-is or calculate other positions relative to them.

Starting in API version 2.16, trash containers are :py:class:`.TrashBin` or :py:class:`.WasteChute` objects. The API calculates movement to these objects based on the horizontal *center* of the pipette, rather than its primary channel (the back channel on 8-channel pipettes, and the back-left channel on 96-channel pipettes in default configuration). This ensures that all tips attached to the pipette are placed over the trash container for blowing out, dropping tips, or other operations.

You can adjust the position of the pipette center with the :py:meth:`.TrashBin.top` and :py:meth:`.WasteChute.top` methods. These methods allow adjustments along the x-, y-, and z-axes (in constrast to :py:meth:`.Well.top`, which only allows z-axis adjustment). With no adjustments, the "top" position is centered on the x- and y-axes and is just below the opening of the trash container.
