Then rinse with clean water repeatedly, and finally, place it in a well-ventilated area to air dry. Remember not to expose it to direct sunlight. As for stainless steel trash bins, the most difficult thing to clean is oil stains. After removing the oil stains, use a special cleaning agent and a non-abrasive cloth to wipe the stainless steel surface. After cleaning, dry it with a dry cloth and then air dry it in a well-ventilated area.

Baiside from that, if the trash bin is dirty, it will not only affect its appearance but also shorten its lifespan due to lack of cleaning. Therefore, regular cleaning is essential. In addition, regardless of the type of trash bin, attention should be paid to the following:

4. Prevention of damage: Deliberate damage is the most direct way to damage a trash bin. Therefore, it is necessary to place service guidelines in the guest rooms informing guests of the compensation amount for any damage. It is also important to inspect the guest rooms promptly upon check-out to effectively prevent deliberate damage by guests.
