Even if you don't want to clean out the smelly trash can, the good news is that it's not difficult. If you follow these five simple measures, your trash can will quickly become clean and tasteless.

It is important to completely empty the trash can before cleaning. Wear rubber gloves and remove any remaining food particles or debris that may fall into the container as usual.

To clean your can, fill it with water and soak it for a few minutes, then drain it. If you have outdoor space, the best way is to use a garden hose to flush the jar. Otherwise, you can use the toilet to flush the trash can in the bathroom.

After cleaning the trash can, use any type of disinfectant spray or general cleaner to clean the inside and outside. If you really want your trash can to smell like new, take a quarter cup of baking soda and sprinkle there. Wait 5-10 minutes for the cleaner/deodorant to work.

The most time-consuming aspect of trash can cleaning is scrubbing. You can use a sponge, microfiber towel or bristle brush in this step; just make sure to clean the outside of the trash can and its lid!

In order to avoid frequent cleaning of the trash can, develop the habit of "small cleaning" every time you take out the trash. Just spray the inside of the trash can with disinfectant and clean it immediately before replacing the trash bag.

If you want to clean it every few weeks, sprinkle a little baking soda on the bottom of the trash can. If you don’t clean the trash can often, be aware that it will clump and become a mess. Other deodorizing ideas include putting dry sheets or cat litter at the bottom of the trash can.
