Question: How can I get rid of the odor in my laundry hamper?
Here's how to remove laundry hamper odor:
Answer: Laundry hampers, especially those with a lid, can begin to smell like dirty socks even when the hamper is empty. If it is made of a material that can get wet, use hot water and baking soda to scrub it down and leave outside to air and dry. If you have a wooden or woven hamper that shouldn’t get wet, take it outside to air, then place a container of baking soda inside and close the lid overnight. You can also use a good air freshener or disinfectant to spray inside.
