4. Remove Odors from Trash Cans
Trash cans can get funky fast, even if you’re good about taking out the garbage. If your bin smells like something crawled in and never left, OxiClean can help. Fill the bottom of the can with hot water and dissolve in a scoop of OxiClean. Let it soak for about 30 minutes. This helps lift gunk and neutralize odors that regular dish soap can’t touch. After soaking, scrub if needed, then rinse thoroughly and let it dry. This trick works on both indoor and outdoor cans. It’s especially helpful for diaper pails or bins that hold food waste. Do this once a month to keep things smelling fresh.
