Garbage smells if it's left long enough for decomposition to start. The first thing to do is clean the empty can thoroughly with a bleach solution and let dry completely. Take your garbage out of the house every night.
Add an odor-absorber.
I just take the trash out every night to the bin.
In our home we put any wet garbage and uneaten food in plastic bags before dumping it in the trash can. We re-use ziplock bags, grocery bags and any other type bag available. Grocery bags often aren't leak proof so on occasion I have tied a knot at the bottom before using it.
Our town has no trash removal so we must take it to transfer station ourselves. If we have "smelly" trash, like lobster shells etc. I put it in the freezer till we're ready to go. for other things, like fish paper from the grocery store, I put them in the sink and as I am doing other clean up they also get "cleaned" in other words, don't put anything "smelly" in your trash.
Try teaspoon of baking soda I'm bag.
Our garbage is always contained in a plastic grocery bag and tied shut before taking it out to the can, but it always stinks by garbage day, try rinsing out the garbage can with vinegar water after garbage day when the can is empty. As far as in the house, stopped using garbage cans in the house because no one ever took it out until the can was overflowing, so it smelled. Grocery bags are small enough to not start to smell and because of the small size also encourages recycling.
