Customer Reviews for Demobags 42-Gallon Contractor Heavy Duty Trash Bags (20-Count)

Currently using the demo bags to hold small pieces of broken concrete and gravel from outside demolition project. Have previously used during interior demolition of lath and plaster walls. Excellent for heavy, abrasive, sharp edged and pointy materials.

The strongest bag I have ever used.

We used to haul demo from a tile, plastered, and concrete bathroom. Due to weight we did not fill completely. Each bag held up. Will buy again.

It teared with tiles load maybe i need to chip the tile to a smaller pieces

Had my bathroom remodeled/repaired and I tried putting the old pieces of wall and floor tile in regular contractor bags which wasn’t going to work. Once a month our bulk trash gets picked up and I didn’t want to take a chance that the bags would tear so I bought these and they worked great.

These are really durable. I used them for debris from a kitchen demo which included concrete, broken tile and wire mesh. Never punctured. Reasonable price so you don’t need to overload the bags.

Long and narrow. These do not fit around the lip a standard, 32 gallon trash can, or any other similar 35 gallon size garage / yard waste can. Why was this not thought of???

I love these bags!!!

Shoddy workmanship! 20-30% of the bags were not sealed shut. The ones that were are GREAT! USED FIVE -SIX TIMES already. With it at twice the price, or three times. But then there are the large % that don't even work right once. You make the call. Me I bought three boxes worth to get enough solid, good-grrat ones. Never go back to black plastic. But... Infuriating, talked to guy who started the company. He would NOT give me refund for bad bags until I had receipt AND picture. Sorry, pebble in shoe. I keep using the good ones and grumbling to self about the bad ones. Great...

I tore my tile floors out to install wood floor. My plan was to take out the tile and hold onto the bags until bulk trash came out to my area, less than two weeks. Bags completely fell apart for the sun. These are not durable. I had to buy another box a day before the trash crew came out to do the job twice.

We utilized these bags to augment the boxes purchased for shipping our personal effects during a recent move, from one home to another. In this regard, we found they provided superior utility in terms of their durability and capacity!

These bags are fantastic. I have used them for flood clean up and other demo projects. Even used them for moving dirt from my landscaping projects. They do not rip or tear and I can drag them to my truck and they do not rip out. I reuse them multiple times which saves me money over buying regular plastic contractor trash bags. Also the $5 rebate is good everytime I use a box.

These bags were great and held everything from broken tiles to drywall. Highly recommend over plastic contractor bags.

I've used them during my bathroom demo and has worked great. I've put sheetrock and tiles and it has hold up pretty good.

Was able to fill alot with it

Great for demo projects or heavy duty clean ups.

Initially they are fine and hold up well to debri such as sharp sticks. However, dont leave them in the sun! After only a few days they disintegrate, evenutally becoming nothing more then a mound of plastic snowflakes with its contents spilled in pile.

Very good but expensive

I will never use a plastic contracter bag again. They cost a little more but they are worth it. They stand straight, nothing punctures the bag and they are easy to haul.

These are the perfect bags for exactly what they are called and I'm continuing to buy them because the price is perfect for the use.

Is the best for hard materials

Best "Demo Bags" available! Tough to rip and reusable. Won't do a project without them!

THIS I A VERY GOOD PRODUCT...I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT FOR YOUR DEMOLITION AND FOR CONSTRUCTION

I was removing an old spa and cut it up with a sawzall. I was able to put the remnants into the trash bags and then they made it easy to load into and unload from the truck afterwards. I repurposed the redwood from the spa to build a small house for a large pet tortoise. The bags were sturdy and none of them were punctured from the fiberglass pieces. The bags exceeded my expectations.

We used three of these bags to dispose of portions of dried elm tree branches. The three branches were each over twenty feet long to start. When the dried branches were cut or broken into short lengths, they were so sharp that they would cut through most extra large heavy duty black plastic clean-up bags. The three demo bags that we used this time did get two small (approx. 1/2 inch diameter) holes. The demo bags did NOT rip! The attached photos show where one bag was punctured when it was thrown and landed on a sharp object. The other was scraped on the inside of the bag and did poke through. The holes were not easy to find after the bags had been emptied. It took only a few minutes to "bandage" the wounds using heavy duty "Gorilla" duct tape applied to both the inside and outside of the bag. The bags are ready for immediate use again. The "wounds" show the effective construction that not only resists tearing, but limits the damage if punctured! The fact that these bags can be easily repaired, if necessary, and then used again makes the not only extremely cost effective, but far less likely to rip apart dumping material!

We have had nothing but problems with large "heavy duty" plastic bags used when disposing of yard waste. It seems that everything wants to poke through the sides and tear them apart. We deliberately made a holder 18" square at the top and 42" deep that holds the unopened 36" x 60" bags open such that two people can work, rather than having one person hold the bag open while only one person works! Even with the support of this holder to "protect" those "heavy duty" bags, they would get immediately torn when removed from the holder. These 42 gal. white contractor trash bags do NOT get torn! They can be emptied, folded, and then used again. I would prefer an unopened size that is the 36" x 60." However, that would probably let us put in more weight than should be handled. (We are in our 70's). The photo shows one bag inside the holder held with binder clips, and a second bag outside to show the length of the bag relative to the holder's size.

Sturdy bags and fits all my trash
