FAQs
Is the caddy dishwasher safe?
It is recommended to hand wash the unit to preserve the integrity of the William Morris-inspired print.
Can this be used outdoors?
The caddy is designed for indoor kitchen use; weather exposure may damage the decorative finish.
Does the lid seal tightly?
The lid is designed for easy access for food scraps, but it is not an airtight vacuum seal.
What is the total capacity?
This model has a 2-liter capacity, which is suitable for daily food waste for small to medium-sized households.
Can I put meat and dairy scraps in this?
While the caddy can hold these items, it is highly recommended to empty it daily to avoid strong odors and fruit flies.
Troubleshooting
Persistent food odors
Empty the caddy more frequently and rinse the interior with a mixture of water and a small amount of white vinegar.
Surface marks or stains
Use a soft, damp microfiber cloth to gently buff out marks; avoid harsh chemical solvents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the caddy is straightforward; simply place it on any flat, stable kitchen surface. To maintain the finish, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the artistic print.
- Placement: Keep in a cool, dry area away from direct heat sources to minimize odor buildup.
- Cleaning: Regularly empty the contents every 1-2 days. Wipe the interior with warm soapy water and a soft cloth, then dry thoroughly to prevent moisture accumulation.
- Liners: If you prefer using bags, use small 2-3 liter biodegradable liners that fit the dimensions of the bucket to simplify clean-up.
