There’s nothing more repelling than stinky, unsightly trash. A pleasant day spent outside at a resort, community pool, park, or sporting event can be spoiled by the sight and smell of exposed garbage. As a business owner, park administrator, or resort manager, keeping trash contained is a constant challenge because, wherever there are people, there is always going to be trash.
&nbsp;
Since trash will never completely go away, you need practical solutions to keep your outdoor areas clean and odor-free for visitors. At Furniture Leisure, we believe the best way to combat a potential problem is by being proactive. Our knowledgeable staff has your back when it comes to looking for the best solutions for your commercial outdoor furniture needs – and <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/commercial-trash-cans-and-receptacles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trash receptacles</a> are no exception. Our extensive catalog features trash receptacles in a variety of sizes, colors, lid options, and materials, including <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/concrete-trash-cans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">concrete</a>, <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/steel-trash-cans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">steel</a>, <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/plastic-trash-cans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">plastic</a>, and <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/fiberglass-trash-receptacles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fiberglass</a>.

As your commercial outdoor trash can expert, we have three ways to ensure your trash cans become the solution instead of the problem in your outdoor space:
<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp;
<img style="float: right; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px;" src="/images/uploaded/How to Make Outdoor Trash Cans Smell Better/Outdoor Dome Concrete Trash Can.png" alt="Put a lid on it!" width="40%" />1. Put a lid on it!
The simplest way to combat bad-smelling trash is by covering it. Trash cans with covers keep the inside waste hidden and, most importantly, the smell contained. When it comes to trash can covers, there are a number of options to choose from:
<ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; padding-inline-start: 48px;">
<li dir="ltr">
<a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/32-gallon-molded-plastic-dome-top-lid-with-spring-loaded-self-closing-door" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dome top cover with a spring-loaded self-closing door</a>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/30-gallon-commercial-concrete-square-trash-receptacle-with-push-door-top" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Push-door cover</a>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/36-gallon-stainless-steel-trash-can-w-liner-swing-top" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Swing-top lid</a>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/25-gallon-arch-tec-commercial-rectangular-steel-trash-receptacle-with-double-sided-lid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rectangular top with double-sided openings</a>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/34-gallon-dual-coat-trash-receptacle-dome-top" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canopy cover</a>
</li>
<li dir="ltr">
<a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/22-gallon-commercial-plastic-square-trash-receptacle-with-drive-up-lid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Drive-up trash can with extended chute lid</a>
</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
While push-door and self-closing lid covers provide total trash containment and protection from the hot sun and rain, canopy covers without doors give you a semi-open alternative with overhead protection from the elements. Nothing stinks worse than hot, soggy trash, so avoid the mess and stress with a covered trash receptacle.

Since food scraps and sugary liquids are the leading cause of trash smells and pests, consider placing separate trash and recycling containers on site.<a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/recycling-receptacles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Recycling receptacles</a> encourage guests to place their empty plastic and glass products in an easy, open-top receptacle away from the food trash and help the environment while they’re at it. With recyclables and trash separated, your staff can stay on top of the regular trash containers more easily to make sure they’re free of odors and pesky pests. Our <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.furnitureleisure.com/42-gallon-polytec-plastic-recycling-container-square-with-top-opening-lid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">42-Gallon PolyTec™ Plastic Recycling Container Square with Top-Opening Lid</a> is a Furniture Leisure top seller.

For a limited time, it’s being offered at a sale price, so order yours now! 
3. SCAN your trash cans regularly
