- I'm surprised that the organics receptacles don't have lids to reduce smell.
- Actually they caddies are pretty small and tend to fill quite quickly - usually well before anything starts to smell bad. Remember also that NO raw meat or fish is allowed and they're the worst.

- Residents can empty out their kitchen caddies as often as they need to, as they are given a supply of compostable liners, which will reduce any smells. Kristen - Recycling Team
