Where I should throw period pads in a dormitory?

Question

It might sound strange but I actually don't know where I should put the used period pads. I have a single room in the dormitory and I we use shared bathrooms.

Is it ok if I just put them in a plastic packet and throw them in bins at the bathrooms?

Answer 1

Keep a separate plastic bag for it. Thats what I did !i

Answer 2

Yes, you can place them in a plastic packet or rolled up in toilet paper.

Answer 3

Sounds reasonable - I would have suggested a plastic bag and then in the trash (don't flush them!) but... you're in a dorm with dozens or even hundreds of other girls... What do they do?

Answer 4

im going to college for the first time in a few days too. depending on yur bathroom. if you share a bathroom with a floor or like a section of a floor. it looks like a public bathroom and they will probably have those little metal boxes on the wall of the stall. but if u hav a bathroom to urself and ur roomates disposal. like my best friend. then in a regular trash can. hope i helped. good luck in school
