They can only climb up a plastic container if it's wet.
If the rubbish isn't up to the rim, leave the lid open for a while so
it can dry in the sun, and then they'll be stuck down with the rubbish.
(It might get cold enough at night to form condensation on the
inside again though.)
They actually eat the stuff that generates the smell, thereby reducing
the smell from the bin.
And move your bin to a less sunny spot?
