We have jumped back into the cloth diapering world and are doing great so far. Dd loves them and since I got an easy system (easy for me), I'm liking it too. We have a "wet bag" type diaper "pail" that attaches to a door knob in our bedroom. I have enough diapers now, though, that I can wash on the third day without a problem - except that the diaper "pail" has become full to bursting!

What does everyone use and where do you keep it? I'm not sure if I want an extra to go with what I have or just something different that will hold 3 days of Fuzzi Bunz.    So tell me everything.

Thanks!

Ermmmm a cooler? It was cheap and the smell NEVER escapes. I do wash the inside after each laundry load and periodically use bleach to disinfect. It's kept in the bathroom.

I use a lidded medium-size garbage pail with 2 XL bummis bags as liners. When I throw in a load of diapers, I throw in the liner and put the 2nd liner in the pail.

The pail sits in our laundry room -- which means I'm carrying diapers through the house but it's not that big of a deal to me.

I wash every other day or so.

I just use a plastic garbage can with a flip lid. I used to keep it in the downstairs bathroom, but now I just keep it in the garage next to the washing machine. It's not inconvient, and it keeps my busy toddler from opening the lid all the time! I use a dry pail, btw.

When we cloth diapered, I used a five gallon bucket in the bathroom with a gamma seal lid on it. Don't know if that would work for you, but it kept everything closed up, but close to hand. And the bucket was easy to haul/lift to get into the washer.

I use a Tidy Cats kitty litter bucket that I keep in the laundry room.
