The Right way to Handle Waste: Hide it in a rollout base cabinet within one step of the sink, or no more than two steps away if it's in an opposing island; Place an additional recycling bin on the rollout, or multiple bins on a second unit near the exterior door if your municipality requires sorting; Use slim cans that require frequent emptying, to keep odors at bay and prevent back strain from hefting too-big bags.
