Try not to throw spoilable garbage in the trash too many days before pick up. We keep leftovers in the refrigerator (or even freeze it) until garbage day.
Nan
We use industrial strength trash can liners. That prevents either can from smelling. If the trash begins to smell bad I pour a cup of Clorox over it, which works until trash day pick up. I also remind myself eating at BBQ Boob's smells worse.

My mother kept a plastic diaper pail, with a tight-fitting lid and lined with a wastebasket bag, in the corner of the kitchen for food waste. I think she kept some mothballs in the bottom of the pail below the liner. She just tossed the bag on trash day.
