Perhaps you should consider another good use for your nappy pails. My husband and I now enjoy a town house with one huge square bathtub (2 other small bathrooms), but the laundry room upstairs does NOT have room for a sink. Our mobility is somewhat limited. The obvious solution is prepping clothes in the huge bathroom--AND putting things to soak in buckets in that huge tub! Since there are only two of us, things can soak for a few days before having a reasonable washer load. Borax is helpful for odor control, but a LID has become an obvious improvement! For more than one type of soak, more than one pail is also essential. So, finally, with three nappy pails, I have this under control! Many thanks, Judy--in the colonies
