where do you put them? or do you take them to the trash can each time?

I double wrap them in a grocery bag, and put them in a covered trash can right outside by back door. This gets carried to the dumpster daily. I do this with all diapers--wet or dirty.

Diaper bag and thrown in garbage out back door. Dirty Diapers get put out further and further away each year. Hahaha.

I have a Diaper Champ that I've had for over 10 years. No odor (except when emptying it) and it uses regular kitchen garbage bag as opposed to specialized bags.

Diapers are done in the bathroom which is right by my laundry room/garage entry. I have a disposable grocery bag hanging on a hook in my garage. When a diaper is changed, I toss it in there. I then trow the bag away during nap and at the end of the day. Keeps the diapers in the garage where no one can smell them.

I have something similar. It even has a little filter so it doesn't stink. A bag lasts about 3 days, then it goes into the big can out by the curb. No smell! I got tired of smelling them even after wrapping them in bags.I have a Diaper Champ that I've had for over 10 years.

Thanks everyone!
I have a trash can outside by the patio door. I works great but during the summer it attracts flies... which is terrible being right there by the door!

Thanks to licensing, diapers have to go in a trash can right next to the changing area. That trash can has to be emptied at the end of the day.

My licensing only states that the area must be located so that hand washing is possible without contacting children or surfaces... it doesn't say anything about soiled diapers or dispositing of the dirty diaper and then handwashing. It just not clear so I want to have the dirty diaper can and the sink accessible without touching anyone or anything.Thanks to licensing, diapers have to go in a trash can right next to the changing area.

I have always used a Diaper Genie, it has always worked for me. I keep it in my bathroom and dump it daily.

Yes. And the whole thing is in the bathroom, changing area, garbage, and sink.Thanks to licensing, diapers have to go in a trash can right next to the changing area. That trash can has to be emptied at the end of the day.
