Abstract

Systems and methods for sanitizing, cleaning, and deodorizing the interior of a garbage can are provided. A device is provided that includes a housing and an adjustable nozzle configured to dispense a cleaning solution into the interior of the garbage can. Additionally, the device includes a power source such as a battery, as well as an electronic board that can enable and disable the nozzle. The device can be mounted to an underside of a lid of the garbage can, which allows solution to be sprayed downwardly into the interior of the garbage can and bags contained therein. The adjustable nozzle can be adjusted to a number of different spray patterns. When the solution of the device is depleted, it can be replaced for further use of the device.
