“I'm so happy to have my 3 gallon food waste bags, which I use in my under-sink garbage container. Now trash that I can't compost or recycle doesn't add plastic to the landfill. The bags are sturdy enough to go down the trash chute in my apartment building, unlike other compost bags I've tried to use for trash.”

Description
 

Switch to an eco-friendly waste disposal alternative with our compostable trash and compost bags. Help stop microplastics from damaging the environment and decrease the risk to your health with our sustainable solution.

You can use them just like any regular trash bag, when a bag is getting full, just tie it from the top and dispose of it.

The star seal bottom reinforces the bags and they won’t break easily. However, if you leave organic waste in these bags for more than 2-3 days, food will start to decompose. Please dispose of them in the proper receptacle before this.

You can use the 3-gallon compost bags to collect compost or for any smaller trash container, they’re fully tested and certified compostable.

The 13-gallon trash bags are only certified commercially compostable (we tested the home compostable ones, and they weren’t as good, so we went with these to bring you the best!). 

Thank you for considering a better option for you, your family, and the world. Try them risk-free with our 30-day money-back guarantee.

How to Use Them
 
  • Fill: Use the bags just like any regular trash bag.
  • Tie & Dispose: When full, tie from the top and dispose of it properly. If containing organic waste, dispose within 2-3 days.
  • Compost: The 3-gallon bags can be composted at home. The 13-gallon bags are for commercial composting facilities.
How many bags in the box?
 
  • 13 Gallon: 40 bags.
  • 3 Gallon: 100 bags.

Is 3 gallon BPI certified?

Is 3 gallons a trash bag?
 

It is a Compost bag for a compost bin. The idea is, you can collect the organic waste in it and then you throw the bag and its content in the composter and they all will biodegrade. You can use it as a trash bag if you desire but recommend avoiding very heavy or sharp objects. It is thin but it is stronger than it looks!

Why is 3 gallon is thin?
 

Products should meet a certain thickness to be Home compostable. This bag is thin but it is stronger than it looks.

Are they as effective as regular trash bags?
 

Yes they are! Just remember that if you leave any organic matter in them for days it may trigger the degradation process with the microorganisms present there.

Do standing liquids affect the bags?
 

Yes if you have any standing liquids, we recommend disposing the bag in 24-48 hours since the degradation process may start

Why don’t they have strings or handles?
 

The ones with no strings or handles are the strongest however we are planning to add these Options in the near future hopefully.
