Any ideas on how to keep garbage cans odor-free? I use Simple Human Odor Absorbers and I clean my trashcan after I throw out the trash but the smell is still there!
I have been on the hunt for a perfect slide out undercounter, trash can that can house both my trash and my recyclables. Because lets face it, if you are like me your glass, plastic and everything else that gets sorted ends up sitting out somewhere and it looks unsightly. My other request was that these trash cans have lids, separate lids. I can only imagine how smelly my cabinet would become if they didn't. I swear I surfed the web for hours, and somehow found a source in germany. www.trashcan24.com I am overjoyed at my options that europeans typically have. Their approach to garbage sorting is so far beyond ours. Enjoy the site. And if you do the math, I found that it actually came out quite comparable to products found in a Hafele catalog.
