We love love love our diaper genie. We full it up and have to empty it once a week so you may need two with twins. We also use the Target brand refill cartridges and they work fine. Also I have to recommend this and it sounds totally weird... So they sell disposable waterproof mats that go on your changing pad. They're expensive and dumb but the principle is fabulous. With babies, you do laundry A LOT especially since a mess on them (poop, vomit, pee, etc) can often mean a mess on blankets, sheets, or your clothes and changing pad covers are no exception. Instead of buying a bunch of covers we only have 2. Instead we bought these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000FD2AX2/ref=aw_wl_ov_dp_1_1?colid=HQ6OMVTB777M&coliid=I1PC52LBX904ZD
We constantly have one of top of the changing pad to prevent a huge mess when changing her and it's saved us multiple times. We also keep a bunch in the car and put one down when we change her out and about because I'm a clean freak and don't want her touching strange surfaces like public bathroom changing areas.
Champion Blue Disposable Underpads (Chux) - you want to get something like these, saves so much on laundry when they decide they weren't done yet.
Sort of like how I mix my larger batchings.
I suggest pipette pumps. The glass pipettes can be a pain to use without them. Makes them easier to clean also. (They are cheaper than glass or plastic syringes/pipettes in the long run.) Or you could look into calibrated graduated cylinders. Pipettes are handy to have with larger batchings. Plus they have the long necks, to pull deep out of containers.
Here is what I use for my calibrated borosilicate glass: (If it is not lab calibrated, just do it yourself. Check the meniscus is correct, if not adjust it.)
A pro-tip for glassware and cleaning. You know it is clean. When clear water does not collect on it. It sheens off. The reason I like glass. No smells over time. Plus super easy to clean mid-mix. A bit of dish detergent laced water. Then rinse until clear water does not stick/pool to the sides of the glass.
Now for the paper towels. Plastic cling wrap is really good for larger areas. It enhances the paper towel's coverage, in case of spillage. Plus it's cheap. I have impermeable underpads. Which is about the same principle.
The pads make it much easier to clean up afterwards. You could get them at most pharmacies, but try and avoid the 22x35 versions. Unless your battle station is big enough. If there is a major spill, most pads handle more then you would have mixing at one time... Or what would spill, before reacting to correct it. No reason to toss them after every mix. So they go a very long ways per towel. So easier and cheaper for the long haul. Oh yeah, they work good with glass not 'tinking' on hard surfaces.
If you haven't met this glove yet... They make every other glove it's bitch for mixing.. they fit really good, chemical resistant, and most of all the tips hold slippery shit. Perfect for our needs mixing!! They can be gotten really cheap too. I don't use gloves because 100mg is dangerous. I use it, to keep my hands clean. In case of something getting on my mitts. I change out gloves and move on. (100mg is dangerous, hence why I use chem resist gloves.)
One thing for the last. I didn't see your "rubbermade" tub. Do you have one that holds all your supplies? If not, consider getting one. Keeping everything in there, unless you have immediate need of it.
