Long press on the bar, then drag it to the top or bottom (whichever direction that makes the bin appear)

Then release

Thanks for the reply but that does not work. I can do this for any other widget but the Google bar is not movable at all.. It just stucked there at the bottom, really annoying.

That's odd indeed,

Is there a setting in the home screen settings?

Even when I disable the Google app from the startscreen options that bar is still there, really annoying..
