Abstract
Systems and methods for sanitizing, cleaning, and deodorizing a container such as a garbage can. The sanitization product can include a disposable pad covered in a solution that is inserted into indoor or outdoor garbage cans. The solution may be configured to minimize and prevent the spread of bacteria and other germs within a garbage can, which routinely occurs due to spilling of food, liquids, and other garbage within the can. Additionally, the pad may be made of an absorbable material so that any liquids that enter a garbage can can immediately be absorbed. Different solutions may be applied to the product depending on where the pad will be used. Additionally, a kit may be provided that includes multiple disposable pads. For instance, the kit may include a dozen pads, or more or less pads, that help to keep the user's garbage can clean and void of unpleasant odors.
