Using this sanitary napkin disposal is easy. Just pull down the self - closing door, and you can put your sanitary napkins into the removable, leak - proof plastic receptacle. When the receptacle is full, simply take it out, empty it, and put it back in. For maintenance, wipe the satin - finish stainless steel surface regularly with a soft cloth to keep it looking clean. Make sure to check the wall opening periodically to ensure there are no blockages or damage. Also, be careful when handling the receptacle to avoid any leaks.
