Move your trash can and sweep/mop the floor around it, wipe down the surrounding walls (if any), and wipe down the outside of the trash can. Change the bag if needed, putting spare bags in the can so they’re ready for easy replacing.

And if it has a lid, wipe down the inside of it! In my first apartment it took us an embarrassingly long time to figure out that that was where the horrible smell was coming from… :p
