Question: 1 / 480

Where shall garbage and rubbish be stored?

In a closed room

In a leakproof, nonabsorbent containers with close-fitting covers

Garbage and rubbish should be stored in a leakproof, nonabsorbent containers with close-fitting covers in order to prevent odors and pests from escaping and causing possible health and sanitation issues. Option A is incorrect because storing garbage and rubbish in a closed room can still lead to odors and pests escaping, as well as potential contamination of the entire room. Option C is incorrect because paperboard containers are not leakproof or nonabsorbent, and thus not suitable for storing garbage and rubbish. Option D is incorrect because storing garbage and rubbish on open shelves also allows for odors and pests to escape, as well as creating a potential safety hazard for anyone who may need to access the shelves. Option B is the most suitable and effective option for storing garbage and rubbish.
