The present invention relates to a deodorizing system for a waste receptacle with a venting system. More particularly, the present invention relates to a waste receptacle that contains a venting system which allows air to enter the receptacle when removing a trash liner, thus allowing the liner to be removed more easily than before. Additionally, as the air moves through the venting system and across or through a deodorizing media, a fresh scent, anti-bacterial agent or other desired effect is provided when the garbage liner is removed from the waste receptacle.
