Reviews Summary
Customers say these trash bags are sturdy and reliable for small waste bins. Many reviews mention their perfect fit for bathroom trash cans and compost bins. Common feedback includes appreciation for the bags' durability, though some note they run smaller than expected. While most find them strong enough for regular use, several mention difficulty with the roll's adhesive sticker damaging the first bag. Frequent comments address their suitability for bathroom waste and food scraps, though opinions vary on size compatibility with different containers.

    Working well

    Doing great in a tiny bathroom garbage can. Can handle some moisture without disintigrating.

    Sturdy and easy to use

    These small "3-gallon" bags are perfect for scooping kitty litter and lining very small waste bins. They come apart easily, and I have no trouble opening them. FYI they would NOT fit into a three-gallon bucket, but do line a 1-gallon bin.

    Great Bags

    These are great trash bags! They fit perfectly in my larger trash/bathroom bins. I really like the tabs for tying and they are light weight but won't break easily.

    Thanks,

    Evelyn N.

    BEST BAGS EVER!

    I absolutely LOVE these compostable trash bags. They are SO VERY sturdy and huge! They are BY far the best Eco-friendly trash bags I have ever come across, and I've tried plenty. The more items I try from Public Goods, the more amazed I am at how well made their products are. I won't be buying trash bags ANYWHERE else from now on. They have all sizes and I have them all. The kitchen trash bags are my favorite because with a family of 4, that's what we use the most. They hold a ton and don't ever leak or break. I look forward to the addition of many more products in the future.
