Answer This Question

A:  Yes. I have a garden maintenance business and use these to dispose of the yard debris. I like these because they're slightly thicker than the other sizes.

    Answer This Question

    A:  Sorry this is a year after you posted, but I am in the same situation and needing a refill and came across your question. We have a 32 gallon rolling composting bin too, with the same dimensions you describe (17 x 18 x 33). These bags are not wide enough to stay in place to line the bin as the bag does not open wide enough for the 17x18 opening. You have to stretch the bag and then it can hang over the lip of the bin, but it is tight and prone to tearing. Because this is the liner to our main bin, and we're putting small compost bags from the kitchen into the main bin, it's not too problematic, but if you have a 32 gallon bin filled with debris, your liner will come off under the weight. As a workaround, we use small binder clips to keep the bag in place. That's good enough for our needs but we have to remember to unclip before garbage day. I've attached a picture for reference. I will likely refill my supply with a slightly bigger bag (35 gallon or so) so the bag opening drapes over the bin. Hope this helps.

      Q:Are the 30 gallon bags attached to one another on the roll and perforated? Or are they pre-cut / ...
      by|Mar 9, 2019
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  They are attached in a roll with perforations. You must tear each off carefully or you might tear the bag. They are light and thin so you have to handle carefully. I have torn one or two by accident. My bags are clear/transparent and appear different from one in photo. I have bags similar to above but they are not compostable.

        Junk
        These bags are absolute JUNK. When you try to pull them apart at the seam between two bags, the bag rips. When you try to put them in a bucket to make it easier to sweep the leaves in the bag, the bag rips. I will be returning these to the store if I can find my receipt. If not, maybe I'll just pitch them. A TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY.

          Environmentally friendly
          I switched to these compostable bags for my garden maintenance business, as I didn't want to keep sending lots of plastic bags to the landfill. I take a truckload to a commercial composting facility every couple of weeks. Been using them for a couple of years whenever possible. They hold up well for pruning debris, leaves, etc. They don't come with ties so you need to leave enough room in the bags to tie the top together, and they will break down in a couple of weeks if the contents are moist.
