Working in a busy kitchen is a battle against gravity and dirt most of the time. Sunday meal prep, holiday hosting and daily family dinners can easily expand the amount of organic scraps. Everybody who has spent time peeling a potato or cutting off a roast knows that kitchen trash is not only unsightly, but also heavy, wet, and capable of creating disasters.

It is not only about scrubbing better and removing the garbage more often, but rather about the structural system that is able to sustain the weight and not to collapse. With a bad waste management system, your kitchen is not a space of food creativity, but a stress.

The Problem with Traditional Bins

We use typical plastic bins most of us, but there is a huge drawback to them, and that is suction. 

The bottom of a bag of heavy wet waste will seal itself. You attempt to tug at the bag and it does not give, and you are likely to have a rip and a huge mess on the floor.

In addition, the conventional bins occupy space which is valuable on the floor and they serve as breeding places of bacteria and odors. The solution to this is a setup that puts more emphasis on airflow and stability.

1. Use a Large Garbage Bag Holder for Heavy Loads

The most effective method to prevent the trap of suction is to relocate away the solid-walled bins. The bag is suspended and open in a large garbage bag holder. This is an open-air design which enables you to fill the bag to the full capacity without the concern of it being jammed.

In the case of a big garbage bag holder, the weight is spread evenly around the rim. This is obligatory in case of heavy products such as rinds of watermelon, glass containers, or heavy liquid leftovers. With a purchase of a large bag holder that is durable, you are guaranteed the bag will keep the garbage inside and not on your kitchen tiles. 

To achieve optimal outcomes, it is advisable to find a large garbage bag holder that is composed of steel so that it does not deform when pressured.

2. Simplify Prep with a Home Garbage Bag Holder

The majority of kitchen messes occur in the travel stage- when you are carrying dripping vegetable peels off the cutting board to a bin that is on the other side of the room. A home garbage bag holder should be placed directly at the workstation to prevent the drips.

A small home garbage bag holder may also be attached to a cabinet or a door of a drawer, just below your counter. This makes you slide waste directly into the bag. It is also a good idea to have a special home garbage bag holder in your prep area so that your main bin does not fill up so fast and also so that you do not have odors concentrated in a single location. It is also easier to sort out recyclables or compostables on the spot with the help of a home garbage bag holder.

When you install a home garbage bag holder strategically in busy locations, you transform the waste management procedure into a smooth cooking process. A home garbage bag holder will save lives even in a small apartment since it occupies no floor space.

3. Pro-Tips for Mess-Free Disposal

The heavy waste even with the best equipment takes a little tactic. The following are three professional-level tips on how to keep your kitchen a no-leak zone:

  • Absorb the Liquids: 

Before you begin cooking, put a piece of cardboard, a folded paper grocery bag or a few sheets of old newspaper at the bottom of the bag. This serves as a main sponge in regards to any trash juice that might be a result of wet coffee grounds or produce.

  • The Double-Fold Technique: 

When a bag is uncommonly heavy, it is not well to simply hang it. Fold the top part of the bag (3 inches) around the frame of your large garbage bag holder to make a cuff. This two-layering strengthens the plastic where it is connected to the metal to avoid the bag slipping or sagging as it gets filled.

  • Temperature-Controlled Disposal: 

When you have very perishable and unpleasant heavy waste (shrimp shells, chicken trim, fish guts) do not allow them to spend three days in the main bin. Put a small bag into the freezer with these items and put them in the big bag only in the morning, when trash day comes.
