- Take the bin outside and rinse with a garden hose. Alternatively, clean in the laundry sink.
- Fill the bin slightly with water.
- Add a few drops of dishwashing liquid and clean the base and lid with a scrubbing brush.
- Empty water from the bin and rinse with clean water.
- Spray the base and lid with vinegar. Dry in the sunshine.
- Disinfect the scrubbing brush by pouring boiling water over it, then soak bristles in vinegar for an hour. Rinse, shake and then air-dry.

Bicarb soda (or Fresh Carpet Sprinkle) sprinkled into the base of the bin will help absorb moisture and smells.
