I wash it out quickly with either vinegar or antibacterial hand soap each time I do diaper laundry.
It's not smelly, and since it's shallow, it's easy to wash out. No deo disks (which I think smell worse than the diapers). In dry winter weather when we heat with wood, I don't even put a lid on it. The diapers dry out and when they dry out they are surprisingly not smelly.
But since I have a 2 story house, I have another setup upstairs. I use diaper pail made for disposables and a diaper pail liner.
I like that system upstairs because the Sterlite bin is not as easy to haul up and down stairs as a liner full of diapers. But since it's tall and a pain to wash out, a liner is a must for that one, but liners are kind of pricey.
I actually have two liners so I can put the fresh one in right away, so I have a place to put the upstairs diapers used while the liner is in the wash with the diapers.
The bin method is less expensive than a pail and liner or two, but both work just fine.
Thanks to Karen for this Frugal Baby Tip!
