1. Opt for stainless steel and bamboo materials whenever possible.
Some waste bins on the market today, due to unclear plastic material origins, may contain radioactive or harmful volatile substances, posing certain health risks. In contrast, stainless steel and bamboo bins are less likely to have such issues and are also easy to clean. Additionally, smaller waste bins encourage more frequent waste disposal, thereby reducing the time for bacteria to thrive.
Two trash bins are sufficient for a household.
Overfilling the trash cans takes up space and increases pollution levels; generally, one in the kitchen and one in the living room are sufficient. If the toilet's flushing function is good, toilet paper after using the toilet can be flushed directly with the toilet water, eliminating the need for a trash can. If it's still too inconvenient, a covered small trash can can be used. The trash can should also be placed in a well-ventilated area to dissipate the odor produced by the trash in a timely manner.
3. The kitchen trash can should ideally have a lid.
There are two types of trash bins available on the market: those with lids and those without. The kitchen, with its abundance of moisture-rich waste, tends to emit odors, so it's best to choose a covered bin. Before disposing of waste, it's necessary to drain excess water and always keep the lid sealed. Uncovered bins are suitable for dry, odorless waste and are ideal for bedrooms or living rooms. Hazardous waste such as spent batteries, broken fluorescent light tubes, mercury thermometers, and expired medications should be separately packaged and sealed.
4. Timely cleaning.
Due to the potential for trash bags to tear and contaminate the bins, it is recommended to clean them daily. Use a brush to thoroughly clean the crevices, then disinfect with 84 disinfectant, and finally rinse and dry.
