Many trash cans found in hotels have multiple holes.

These holes are needed to make the container easier to use.

Thus, even full garbage bags do not get stuck in the “leaky” bucket.

Many people should take advantage of this life hack at home.

What's the trick?

Unfortunately, people often forget to take out the trash on time. Many remember this "duty" only after the bag is full and an unpleasant smell appears.

Removing the bag from the bucket too late may result in the bag simply tearing.

You must admit, it’s unpleasant when garbage ends up at the bottom of a plastic bucket, or even on the floor.

But if there are holes in the bucket, then a person is unlikely to encounter the problem described above.

The thing is that air will start getting into the container. And even a full garbage bag will be removed with incredible ease: nothing will tear or fall.

How to drill holes correctly

You need to take a drill with a small drill bit and make several medium-sized holes on the side of the bucket.

If the container is not made of the strongest material, then you need to stick a piece of tape on the drilled area. Then no cracks will appear.
