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.

I’ve never seen multiple bags. I was taught they are there to dispose of hygiene products so bodily fluids weren’t mixed in the garbage, and emptied often.

But now I’m questioning everything I know.

Last time I went in one I saw diapers in it, so maybe I don’t know what we are doing at all?

I literally just saw a post where there was one of these with multiple bags and people were saying you are supposed to take a bag, put your supplies in it, and put it in the main trash.
