The Best Diaper Trash Cans For Your Baby's Nursery
Keep your nursery smelling fresh and clean with these diaper trash cans.
A whiff of a full diaper can leave us wondering how such a big stink came out of something so little. Diaper trash cans contain and help to eliminate odours that would otherwise spread throughout your home in a standard trash can. They also prevent you from having to make extra trips to the outdoor garbage bins. Control the stinky smell of diaper odours, and make changing time a breeze (or at least a little bit easier).
Here are the best diaper trash cans for your baby’s nursery.
Diaper Genie Platinum
The Diaper Genie Platinum is the latest innovation in the Diaper Genie product line, and the brand’s first stainless steel pail (stainless steel is a highly durable material that supports odour control). It features the brand’s signature odour-locking clamp system and comes with multi-layer bags that trap odours. It has a foot pedal for hands-free operation and can hold up to 47 newborn diapers. The long-lasting refill roll holds up to five months’ worth of diapers and uses 70% less cartridge plastic than former refills, making it a more sustainable solution.
Diaper Genie Signature
The Diaper Genie Signature is the original bestseller. It features the same design as the Platinum, but it’s made of plastic (instead of stainless steel) – and it’s a fraction of the cost. It can hold up to 47 newborn diapers (846 with the refills) and features Diaper Genie’s signature odour-locking clamps that prevent diaper odours from escaping. Stacked up against Diaper Genie’s earlier models, the Signature has a larger capacity, a hands-free foot pedal, and pre-cut (perforated) bags.
Ubbi Diaper Pail
Ubbi’s main selling feature is that it doesn’t require special bags – you can use any standard trash bag. This pail is made of stainless steel which, unlike plastic, is not porous, meaning smells stay trapped inside. It has an innovative sliding lid that prevents smells from escaping, and a childproof lock to protect little fingers. It’s intentionally designed and engineered to be easy to load, use, empty, and clean, and can hold up to 55 newborn diapers. The Ubbi is the ultimate in style (you can even customize it with cute decals) and makes a chic addition to a baby's nursery.
Available in eight colours.
Dekor Plus
Dekor’s compact size makes it well-suited for those with smaller nurseries or those looking for space-saving solutions. Despite its smaller frame, the Dekor Plus has the largest opening of any diaper pail on the market, so you’ll avoid having to squish larger dirty diapers in. It offers a hands-free foot pedal system, can hold up to 60 newborn diapers, and uses powder-scented continuous bag liners that can be cut to size with the built-in childproof cutter. The Dekor Plus can also be used as a standard trash can when you’re done with diaper changing – just pop out the diaper insert, and swap the diaper bags for standard trash bags.
Available in three colours.
Munchkin Pail
Powered by Arm & Hammer, this diaper trash can uses a baking soda puck, combined with specially-designed Arm & Hammer bags, to keep stinky smells at bay. It features a unique sealing system that ensures bags stay tightly secured while keeping odours locked in. This diaper trash can has a push lid, and is mid-sized compared to other options.
