3D Printed Baking Soda Bracket for Your Garbage Can

I know this isn’t my usual tech-heavy blog post, but I figured some of you fellow tech-savvy folks might have 3D printers sitting idle and appreciate a small but useful print.

The Problem:

If you’ve ever had to store your large 96-gallon garbage can in a garage or container, you know how quickly things can start to smell… bad. Traditional solutions like deodorizer pods or sprays either don’t last or are expensive over time.

The Solution:

I designed a simple 3D-printable bracket that lets you hang a standard 1 lb box of baking soda inside your garbage can. You just open the side of the box (like you normally would when using it in a fridge), slide it into the bracket, and mount it on the sidewall of the can. That’s it!

The baking soda helps neutralize odors passively, and the bracket keeps it from tipping over or getting lost in the trash.

Here’s a link to the Arm & Hammer Baking Soda box I used: Amazon Link

Why Share This?

It’s a super simple print that solves a real-world problem—something I love about 3D printing. If you’ve got a printer and a smelly garbage situation, give it a try.

Let me know if you print one, or if you’d like a modified version for a different container!
