1. A waste device for refuse comprising a container having a bottom and a circumferential wall, wherein the container has a container opening on an end remote from the bottom, wherein the waste device is provided with closing means positioned near the container opening for substantially closing the container opening in such a way that odor release is prevented, wherein the closing means comprise: a drum housing provided in an internal part of the waste device, the drum housing having a drum opening facing an interior of the container; a drum body having an external surface that is at least partially closely connected to an inner surface of the drum housing, wherein the drum body has a transport container for the refuse, the transport container extending inwardly from the external surface thereof, wherein the drum body is pivotable between an insertion position wherein refuse is placeable in the transport container, and a transit position wherein the transport container is aligned with the drum opening; a flexible sealing member extending about a circumferential edge of the drum opening of the drum housing, wherein the sealing member, as seen in an axial cross-section, comprises a connection part that is located radially outwards, and that is connected to the drum housing, and wherein the sealing member comprises a sealing part connected to the connection part, the sealing part free from any connection to the drum housing and extending radially inward from the connection part and which may be brought into sealing contact with the external surface of the drum body for sealing the container opening in a substantially odor-free manner, and wherein a radial end of the sealing part remote from the connection part is free from any connection to the drum housing such that a freely movable free end of the sealing member is formed; and wherein the radial end of the sealing part extends upwardly in a direction away from the bottom of the container and is in contact with the external surface of the drum body.
