7 Popular Nappy Bins Mums Are Using

The best nappy bins for 2019 | Mum's Grapevine

With newborn babies come days filled with cuddles, special moments – and nappies. Lots of nappies. If you’ve made the decision to use disposables on your little one’s botties, a quality nappy bin will very quickly become your best pal in the nursery.

Game-changers when it comes to less fuss at change time, nappy bins are specially made for one-handed disposal. Unlike regular bins, they’re cleverly made to trap odours, saving you countless trips to the outside bin every day.

Sleek, hygienic and oh-so-convenient, nappy pails help keep your nursery clean and your changing station organised – so you can spend more time on the fun stuff, like snuggling your delicious baby.

What to look for when buying a Nappy Bin

Best nappy bins in Australia for 2021 | Mum's Grapevine

Here are some of the key features to look for when buying a nappy disposal bin:

Size: Like everything else in the nursery, size really does matter. Babies come with a lot of stuff, so choose a pail that can store at least a full day’s worth of nappies without cluttering the nursery.

Capacity: How far is the outdoor wheelie bin from baby’s nursery? If you live in an apartment building or have a few flights of stairs to climb, consider buying a nappy bin with a larger capacity to save yourself a little legwork.

Odour containment: There’s no denying that wet nappies smell a little funky. Look for a nappy bin that locks in bad smells with clever seals or coatings to keep baby’s nursery smelling fresh all day long.

If you have an extra sensitive nose, fear not, we’ve found this neat little odour trapper that you simply tape to the inside top of the bin. Check it out at the end of this roundup.

Do you really need a nappy bin?

While not an absolute necessity, a purpose-built nappy pail contains funky smells for a long time and looks tidy.  So, we consider it a valuable addition to your change-time essentials.

What should I look for in a nappy bin?

Look for a unit that seals to lock in smells, that’s easy to clean and looks great in your baby’s special room. Also, don’t forget that you will almost always have your baby in one arm, so look for a nappy bin that can be easily operated with one hand.

How much are nappy bins?

In Australia, expect to pay anywhere from $25 to $150 for a quality unit.
