A unit combining a diaper dispenser and disposal drawer is shown. The unit consists of two sections, an upper dispensing section and a lower disposal section, which provide a single unit for new and soiled diapers, as well as other supplies used in changing a baby. The upper dispensing section has a number of dividers which define vertical shafts. Diapers are placed in these shafts and are removable at the bottom thereof through adjustable slots. The slots of the upper dispensing section are adjustable by using a removable shelf. The vertical shafts are also adjustable in cross-sectional size to accomodate different sized diapers. A slidable front panel permits easy access to one or more of the vertical shafts for reloading. The bottom disposal section comprises a cabinet generally rectangular in shape with a pivoting, top-opening door. This disposal section may contain a separate bin, such as a plastic bag or bucket which is easily removed to dispose of soiled diapers and other waste. The door additionally has a liner along its edges making the lower section of the unit airtight and thus odor-free. Space is also provided to allow the user to place a deodorizer within the lower section.
