Follow tips by House Cleaning Capitol Hill, CO:

  • Clean with dishwashing liquid:

During the house cleaning process this is the first thing you can try. Simply wash the plastic container with sponge. Rinse it and let the water flow out, all you need to do is put some good amount of dishwashing liquid or soap in it. Allow it to soak in the plastic container and then leave it for some time. This will remove the grease and eventually you will get rid of the smell.

  • Use Vinegar:

During the house cleaning process if you want to get rid of the smell you can simply use the vinegar solution technique. Take the vinegar bottle and add it in the cup of plastic and then pour half cup of water in the plastic container and let it soak for one day at least. Vinegar has natural ingredients which helps you to clean the grease which builds up. The smell will disappear when you are going to use the right combination of water and vinegar solution.

  • Let your plastic containers take a sunbath:

During the house cleaning process all you need to do is open the lid of the plastic containers and put it in the sunlight. Make sure that you wash it before you put it in the sunlight and also make sure that you don’t melt in the sunlight as well. Even placing it in the sunny windows might help you as well.

  • Bicarbonate soda trick:

When house cleaning all you need to do is take 5 tb of bicarbonate soda and close the lid of the container. After that you need to do shake the container for 2-3 minutes. This will help you to remove the smell but it will not remove the smell completely that has been stored inside. Then you can start all over again by adding the bicarbonate soda and water in it. Shake it well until the smell is gone.

  • Newspapers:

During the house cleaning, make sure that you grab some old news papers and crumble them little by little and then put them inside the plastic container. This will grab the odor from the plastic container including the grease as well.

  • Pop them in the freezer overnight:

During the house cleaning, all you need to do is put your plastic containers in the freezer as it helps to remove the stinky odor from almost everything. Just put this in the freezer overnight and it will smell fresh next morning.
