What should be done with waste bins in the galley?

• A. They should be overflowing
• B. They should be kept closed and not overflowing
• C. They should be left open
• D. They should be removed from galley

Answer: (B)

In the galley, waste management hinges on containment and cleanliness. Keeping waste bins closed and not overflowing helps prevent spills and foul odors, stops waste from contaminating food preparation areas, and reduces the risk of attracting pests or starting a fire. It also supports a safe, sanitary workspace for crew during service. When a bin nears capacity, change the liner and empty it according to the airline’s procedures. Leaving bins open or overflowing would create a dirty, unsafe environment, and removing bins would remove a needed waste containment option.
