I have a black rubbish bin from the warehouse that also has a lockable lid (great for nosey toddlers!) and it also has a ridged bottom so I can put drops of tea tree oil in the bottom without the oil getting on the nappies (Go the Red Shed! lol)

Personally, I wouldn't want to keep used nappies in the nursery Perhaps just outside the door?]]> Mon, 24 Sep 2007 21:49:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=218563&title=storing-naps-before-washing#218563 <![CDATA[Storing naps before washing : Yeah I use tea tree oil as well,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=217948&title=storing-naps-before-washing#217948 Author: cuppatea

I got a pedal bin from the warehouse. It is a 20l one and was about $20. It is stainless steel looking. I tend to throw the soiled naps in there and wash them at the end of the day. I put a flannel in the bottom with a couple of drops of tea tree oil on it and his whole room smells mildly tea tree oilish!! Much better than damp nappy which was the smell that was starting to form ]]> Mon, 24 Sep 2007 10:11:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=217934&title=storing-naps-before-washing#217934 <![CDATA[Storing naps before washing : You can get cheap nappy buckets...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=217901&title=storing-naps-before-washing#217901 Author: kebakat

You can get cheap nappy buckets from the warehouse for under $10 and they have great lids that don't let any smells escape]]> Mon, 24 Sep 2007 09:39:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=217901&title=storing-naps-before-washing#217901 <![CDATA[Storing naps before washing : i have a pedal bin...it doesnt...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=217896&title=storing-naps-before-washing#217896 Author: Bizzy

Hi we just have a bin with a flip lid. I rinse pooey ones in the laundry tub first, I generally wash them the same or next day though so they don't really have a chance to get smelly. Oh and I disinfect the bin once a week to keep that smelling fresh]]> Mon, 24 Sep 2007 09:13:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=217881&title=storing-naps-before-washing#217881 <![CDATA[Storing naps before washing : You really don&#039;t need to...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=217880&title=storing-naps-before-washing#217880 Author: mummy_becks

You really don't need to soak them. Just get a nappy bucket with a good fitting lid and store them in your bathroom or whereever you want to have them.

Hi

I just wondered what is the best thing to store soiled cloth nappies in before washing them?

Our laundry is in the garage, so it would be more convienient to store them in the house (prob in babies room).

Do you really not need to soak them?

If not soaking, do you need a bucket with a tight fitting lid to stop any smell?

I was thinking about getting a step rubbish bin with a removable bucket for carrying the naps to the wash - is this a stupid idea? (would need to make it child proof eventually).

Are there any other options?]]> Mon, 24 Sep 2007 09:06:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10961&PID=217878&title=storing-naps-before-washing#217878
