dumpster de-odorizer

anybody know of a way to keep a dumpster from smellin'? Some kind soul dumped a salmon in the shop's dumpster and it was there for 6 days in 80+ degree heat. I guess it sort of poured out when they dumped it. any ideas?

thanks

Going along with the baking soda idea, arm and hammer sells a 'trash can deodorizer'. It looks just like baking soda. I have a toddler, and some of the things that wind up in the trash cans in the garage don't smell so good. I little bit of A&H in the can does wonders.

Sunshine and fresh air if you can bear to leave it open.

Washing it out with soap will help a lot also.

Go to Wal-Mart or a Pet store and buy a gallon of their pet urine, blood and vomit odor remover. It should be around $12.00 for a gallon. It is liquid that you spray (or pour) on and let it air dry. Enzymes in it break down the organic matter and the odor goes away. It works good on wet suits too.
