What does feng shui say about it?

According to ancient texts and principles of Feng Shui, there are certain basic day-to-day practices that can help in maintaining a harmonious flow of energy and positivity to the house, which is known as “Chi.” It is believed that even the smallest things in the house have the power to transform the ‘Chi’ of the house and bring in negativity and bad fortune. This is why Feng Shui has some simple suggestions that are related to the placement of the dustbin and how keeping it in the right way can prevent stagnant negativity from waste accumulation.

Why is it important to place the dustbin in the right direction?

Feng Shui emphasizes on attracting positive energy flow to the house to maintain its Chi. This is why a proper placement of a dustbin is essential in removing stagnant negativity and evil energy that develops with waste accumulation in the house and affects the Chi.

Ideal bin placement

According to the feng shui principles, it is best to position the dustbin in the kitchen's southwest or west corner, as it helps in aligning with earth elements that neutralize waste energy. Also, it is advised to keep a bin covered with a lid, as it helps contain the odors and ‘Sha chi’ (negative energy) and ensures smooth flow of positive energy. It is also advised by the experts that one must keep it concealed under the sink or in a cabinet to maintain a clean, inviting kitchen aura.
