Garbage cans and garages are two things with next to no expectation for pleasant smells, but that doesn’t mean they have to smell like oils and trash at all times. While your garage and trash cans aren’t winning awards for best-smelling parts of the house anytime soon, when the doors start drifting into your house and taking over your property, you know it’s a problem that must be tackled. In some significantly worse cases, it may be difficult to figure out where the smell is coming from and how to get it out of your garage or trash can. So how do you eliminate odors from your garage and garbage? Check out these tips to help you get rid of the bad smell from your trash and storage.


Baking Soda

A pro hack to eliminating garage and garbage odors is to use baking soda. You can sprinkle a baking soda mix to the bottom of your trash can, spray it in the corners of your garage, or add the dry form to your trash content. The chemical content in the baking soda absorbs the odors and clears the smell in your garbage or garage. You can also use baking soda to scrub your trash can by adding it to your cleaning solution or pour a cup of baking soda into the bottom of the trash can when it is dry.


Bleach

Another essential chemical to get rid of bad odors from your garage and garbage is bleach. Bleach is a very strong disinfectant that kills germs and overpowers bad smells. However, you have to be careful when using bleach to clear bad odor from your garage or garbage. The chemical content in bleach can cause your garage walls to rust and damage and can affect the garbage can similarly. To avoid the fumes from the bleach overpowering your senses, you can dilute the bleach content with about two gallons of water per ¼ cup of bleach. The effect will still be strong and you won’t have to deal with intense fumes.


Dryer Sheets

Moisture is one of the main causes of odors in your trash, and to deal with this problem you can use dryer sheets. Whether used or fresh, dryer sheets are a great way to absorb wetness that may cause odors to emit from your garbage or garage. It is best to place dryer sheets after cleaning and drying your trash for them to work effectively.


Clear out old stuff in your garage

It is important to remember that mold can build in clutters inside your garage, which is why it is important to clear out your garage to avoid unpleasant odors. Be sure to clean spills immediately they occur and always wipe down equipment used in fixing your car or household items after use.
