A waste container and method of deploying liners in the waste container generally including one or more container side walls; a container partition structure having a liner passing port and dividing the container into a container waste chamber and a container liner chamber; a sequential plurality of liners provided within the liner chamber in such a way that each liner is linked to the next so that when the first liner in the sequence is pulled through the liner passing port, the next sequential liner is ready to be pulled into the waste container for use; and a motion-activated spray canister that discharges an antiseptic or fragrant mist or spray into the waste container each time a new liner is deployed.

1. A waste container comprising: one or more container side walls;a container partition having a liner passing port, said container partition dividing said container into a waste chamber and a liner chamber, the liner chamber dimensioned to receive a plurality of sequentially linked liners, the container partition dimensioned to permit passage of at least one of the liners of the plurality of sequentially linked liners from the liner chamber to the waste chamber when the plurality of sequentially linked liners are received in the liner chamber;a canister housing provided within the liner chamber;a passageway for fluid communication between the waste chamber and the canister housing; anda canister provided within the canister housing and having a pressurized fluid, the canister including a fluid discharge nozzle that discharges the fluid through the passageway and into the waste chamber as a spray or mist, the fluid discharge nozzle activated by a motion-sensing circuit,wherein the motion-sensing circuit includes a movement sensor positioned proximate to the liner passing port in order to detect movement at or proximate to the liner passing port, andwherein the motion-sensing circuit includes first and second temporizers, the first temporizer operable to transmit a first digital signal upon detection of movement by the movement sensor, the second temporizer operable to transmit a second digital signal upon an additional detection of movement by the movement sensor within a predetermined timeframe, the discharge of the fluid thereby occurring after the transmission of the second digital signal. 2. The waste container of claim 1, further comprising a motor and a trigger provided in the canister housing, the motor and trigger operable to open the fluid discharge nozzle upon activation by the motion sensing circuit. 3. The waste container of claim 1, wherein the liner chamber is detachable from the waste chamber. 4. The waste container of claim 1, said plurality of sequentially linked liners further comprising a stack of liners folded to at least partially overlap each other one to the next. 5. The waste container of claim 1, said plurality of sequentially linked liners further comprising a roll of liners connected one to the next and being separable along perforation tear lines. 6. The waste container of claim 1, wherein said liner chamber is positioned below said waste chamber.
