(USA), The Original Compostable Bag, 3 Gallon, 100 Total Count, 100% Certified Food Scrap Bags, Kitchen Compost Bin Compatible

Great food scrap bags! And for a much more reasonable cost than zi can get locally.

I've been using these bags for several years and have been very satisfied. They do take a little longer to degrade in a backyard compost bin, and obviously if you leave a bunch of wet trash sitting in them for too long they might get a little leaky, but I figure that's a reasonable compromise between sturdiness and compostability.My most recent order was clearly defective: the bags were a darker color, and they would split the entire length of the bag just by pulling them out of the box. I contacted the company directly and a rep got back to me within 20 minutes. She suggested I check the date printed on the bags, and explained that they've had problems lately with expired bags being sold through resellers, even though customers are clicking on the “BioBag Store.” Sure enough, the date on the bags was 2020! She FedEx-ed me a new box (dated 2024) and these bags are fine.If you get a bad batch, check the manufacturing date printed on the bags! if it's more than 18 months ago, I encourage you to email the company at [email protected] and include your Amazon order number so they can identify the reseller and file a claim with Amazon.I do recommend these bags, and I'd hate to see a reliable company that's doing good work have their reputation damaged for something that isn't their fault.

BioBag (USA), The Original Compostable Bag, 2.6 Gallon, 100 Total Count, 100% Certified Compostable...I challenged the business end of a banana skin while I was tying up the over-full bag (note to self: don't over-fill). The hard banana stem didn't penetrate the material, even with extreme provocation, and dropping the bag into the empty green bin didn't breach it. The 16"x17" bag size is perfect for those 8L/2gal oval counter-top bins. I looked at other brands online, but I wasn't sure that they were biodegradable and compostable: the BioBag is not outrageously more expensive for that assurance. Bonus: the box dispenses the bags as singles. Yes, no more pulling and tearing! Happy with the product..

Good price, great product - BUT, since they are compostable, be sure to handle them gently after three or four days. They will start dissolving.

They are very strong!!I used to use Glad bags more expensive and always ripped just putting them in the container Waste of money!! These are amazingly strong Great purchase!!Just did my second purchase!!
