-
Slice a lemon in half and rub it all over the stained area. Set the plastic container outside in the sunshine and leave it there until the sun goes down. Repeat as needed until the stain is gone.
-
Mix baking soda and table salt in equal parts and add enough clean water to make it into a thick paste. Scrub the stained area with a clean cloth or sponge dipped into the paste until the stain is gone and rinse well.
-
Fill the plastic container with lemonade and allow it to sit for 10 to15 minutes before washing it with warm soapy water.
-
Dump two tablespoons of powdered dish detergent into the plastic container and pour in enough hot water to cover the stain. Allow the container to soak for at least 15 minutes before rinsing it out with clean water.
