FAQs
Is the Nautical Icons Food Waste Caddy dishwasher safe?
It is recommended to hand-wash the caddy to ensure the detailed nautical design remains vibrant and intact.
Can I use this bin without a bag?

What does '2L capacity' mean in terms of space?
It holds approximately 2 liters of volume, which is generally enough to hold a day's worth of coffee grounds, fruit peels, and vegetable trimmings.
Does this caddy have a locking lid?
The caddy is designed for easy access for kitchen prep; please check the physical unit to see the lid style.
Can I store meat scraps in this caddy?

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is immediate; simply place the caddy on any level kitchen surface. To maintain the appearance of the Nautical Icons, hand-wash the exterior with a soft cloth and mild soap, avoiding abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the detailed design. While the interior is designed for food waste, it is recommended to line the bin with a small compostable bag to ensure easy disposal and to keep the interior clean. Always store the unit away from direct heat sources, such as the stove, to preserve the material finish and prevent odor buildup from heat-accelerated decomposition.
