Question

When a guest on Shabbat at someone else's house (even, say, at his father-in-law's) places a dirty diaper of a baby into a bag so it doesn't remain in place, even though it could be placed, for example, on a window without the smell bothering anyone, but later it will be a burden for the homeowner to throw it away after Shabbat, is this considered creating a receptacle for impurity from the outset, and should one immediately go down to the public trash to avoid carrying it after the meal to the trash?

Answer

Shalom and blessings

This is not considered creating a 'receptacle for impurity'. 

In any case, it is not incumbent upon the homeowner to take it to the trash, and if so, you will need to carry the diaper, wherever it may be.
