Questions & Answers

I just opened these bags and they have an intense synthetic fragrance smell. I have a chemical sensitivity to this type of fragrance and cannot come in contact with these bags. I checked the box and there is no indication of fragrance.

          Why do these bags have to be scented? It’s overwhelmingly offensive and completely unnecessary! They are construction bags not garbage bags. Please please buy unscented bags!!!

              Is 3mil double side or 3mil single side of thickness of these bags?

              Answer This Question

              Our 42 Gallon 3 mil contractor bags are made of a 3 mil thick plastic, so this is the thickness of the bag all around once it is opened up.

              By|Jun 23, 2026

                They aren’t double layered bags. They are a single 3 mil thickness true flap style trash bag.

                  Well i was moving and i like to keep my hanging clothes hanging . I took a husky bag poked a hole in the center bottom , poked like 8 or 10 hangers through and wrapped the bag around the clothes. Tied the bottom and DONE. That way everything on a hangers stays on the hangers and protects my clothes from dirt water etc. These bags are the perfect size and i love em!!! These bags are strong and durable. love em

                  I have used Husky contractor cleanup bags for many many years. They are one of the best bags you could buy on the market, incredibly strong and fits all my needs. I own a property in a mountain area and works exceptionally well with pinecones, Pine needles, branches and other debris. The thickness of the bags are really solid and can carry and support heavy items also.

                  I love this product. The 3 mil thick bags are super strong and perfect for yard cleanup work. I use these bags exclusively for grass clippings from when I mow my lawn. I use these bags for tree clippings and the branches do not puncher the plastic bags. I have tried other bags and there is none better.

                  Great durability
                  I've been using these contractor bags for years, I love how large and sturdy they are, and they're easy to get out of the box as they dispense one at a time. They are perfect for heavy items as they won't tear. The large size gives me the ability to get a firm grip on them when I have to load them in my UTV to take them up to the main road for pickup. With fall cleaning coming I bought another box just to be sure I don't run out. If you're on the fence about if they're worth it, believe me, you won't be disappointed.

                    I’m very impressed with the Husky 42-gallon contractor bags. They are thick, strong, and hold up extremely well when dealing with my construction materials. I’ve used them for yard debris, household cleanouts, and general cleanup without having to worry about the bags tearing or leaking easily. The large size is also a big plus because you can fit a lot in each bag, which saves time and reduces the number of bags needed. The quality is noticeably better than many standard garbage bags. Overall, these are a great choice for anyone who needs a heavy-duty trash bag. I would definitely buy them again.

                    These are the bags to get, they are super tough and can handle pretty much anything you can toss into them. I haven't ever found another bag that compares - everything else is thin compared to these. I use these for some extreme trash and they keep the stink and mess inside until I can get it disposed.

                    We could not be more pleased with the strength of these bags!! We filled them with very heavy debris and dragged them to the street for disposal. We were then able to empty the bag into the truck and keep them for an additional use. Definitely a great value!!
