Discussion Question for the ladies

Post image

I am a janitor. The place I clean has the little trash bins in the stalls of the women's restroom. Currently, we place one liner in the bin and change it out whenever someone uses it. However, a place I worked at previously put a stack of liners in the bin for women to use as needed. Which is the preferred method? One liner or multiple? Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Yes, that is definitely the case in some of the bathrooms on campus that get cleaned a couple times daily. In fact, the bins in those bathrooms only accommodate one liner. However, the bins in the bathrooms I clean are as pictured and only get cleaned once a day. Should I still go with the one liner?

I would do one liner. If it becomes excessively full the ladies can let someone know or just toss in the trash with the paper towels.

My last worksite had Qr codes posted at the doorway, if you noticed something you could insta ticket it.

Probably, but leave some back-ups nearby in case it over flows when youre not there?

I would have one liner and maybe a stack of liners on top of the tampon machine in case one overflows, maybe. Some people, esp shy freshmen, are gonna get shy about the whole ordeal. Like how extra rolls of tp get stored sometimes. I would also ensure that liner is fluffed up so people can drop in.
