URBAN TRASH CANS

That's a great question! Dealing with a stuck, torn trash bag in a dirty outdoor bin is nobody's favorite chore. The good news is, a few simple tricks can make removal a breeze. The best method is often the simplest: use two bags. Place the first bag as usual, then add your second bag inside it. When the inner bag is full, it lifts out easily without sticking to the can's walls. For extra insurance, sprinkle a light layer of baking soda or cheap cat litter in the bottom of the first bag before adding the second. This absorbs minor moisture and creates a barrier. Another winner is using a cheap, large plastic storage container or a small, damaged recycling bin *inside* your large outdoor can. Simply place your bag inside this smaller container. When full, you lift the entire inner container out, making bag handling much easier. For cans that tend to get grimy, a quick spray of cooking spray or a wipe-down with silicone spray on the *interior walls* (sparingly!) can prevent bags from fusing to the plastic. The key is preventing direct contact between wet waste and the can's interior. With these hacks, you'll say goodbye to wrestling with stuck bags forever
