10 Best Nappy Bins 2024 | UK Paediatrician Reviewed

We've put this in our penultimate spot owing to the higher cost, but if you've got more than one baby, or you plan on using this for the long haul, then this is a fantastic option. It holds many more nappies than its competitors, whilst remaining fairly small in size. 

Korbell's Classic Nappy Bin features a double-seal to lock in odours, with lightly scented biodegradable liners to mask bad smells. The continuous refill system and foot pedal make it easy to dispose of soiled nappies and change the bin liner without any additional mess.

For those who like to combine functionality with style, this bin comes in a range of four different colours. That way you will be able to find the perfect one to match your baby's nursery or your home decor.

While the sanitary credentials of this bin are fantastic, it isn't the easiest to use, which is why its just missed out on our top 3. But once you get the knack of how to use it, this is a very durable bin that will stand the test of time! 

This value pack from Angelcare includes 6 cartridges of their odour seal liners, as well as the nappy bin. These individual use liners totally encase the used nappy to keep your baby’s nursery smelling fresh and clean. To use, you simply open the lid and push the nappy through the clamp system to lock the smell inside the multi-layer bag.

If you're looking for a bin with cartridge liners then this is a great value starter pack. It should last you a good couple of months, even with the high nappy output of a newborn! 

Skip Hop's nappy bin allows you to easily dispose of your baby's soiled nappies with a dual air-lock system to trap in smells. You can use standard bin bags as your liners, and it even has a child proof lock!

The slim design will fit into the smallest of spaces, but what we like most is the built-in storage compartment to hold all your nappy changing essentials. A very handy feature to have included, you can also buy additional accessories like a wipe dispenser to make it even more convenient. 

Here we have another bin with a three step opening and closing mechanism that uses the handle to keep odours locked inside. A more environmentally friendly option, it's suitable for use with reusable nappies and  you can use biodegradable bin liner should you wish. 

Once again, with this style of closing mechanism you need to ensure that the nappies are totally clear of the lid, otherwise it will not work properly and may even damage the lid if forced closed. 

Korbell's hygienic, hands free pedal bin features simple-to-use liner refills that you pull out, trim using the inbuilt cutter, and tie. The lid locks to keep out inquisitive toddlers, while the double seal design traps in unpleasant odours to keep your changing area fresh and clean.

Being a "mini" bin, this is one of the more compact options. So you may find yourself emptying it more frequently. On the plus side, its smaller size makes it ideal if you need something to help you save space!

This is a more traditional nappy pail, which can be operated one handed. It's ideal if you're using reusable nappies and can be used with ordinary bin liners. Once you're done using it as a nappy bin, it can be repurposed as a normal household bucket.

However, the catch on the lid can be tricky to use one handed, and can easily break over time. But if you're looking for a lower cost, no nonsense nappy bin without all the fancy features, this one is hard to beat!

This option from Tommee Tippee is great if you're looking for quality construction on a low budget. It's the cheapest on the list but it's not lacking in great features! It uses the same antibacterial odour protection that their other more expensive products do and its compact design means it can be easily stowed away. 

That comes in useful when you consider that the lid is not lockable, so if you want to avoid tips and accidents, it might be best to keep this one in a cupboard! It also only holds 18 nappies, so you will have to empty it much more often than other bins!
