Throw Easy Garbage Bags

Most bin bags fail in one of two places: the seam at the bottom, or the point where you grip them. Throw Easy is gusseted at the base and drawn from a heavier film than its thickness suggests, so a bin full of kitchen waste travels to the gate in one piece.

All of it is recycled. The film is made from post-consumer plastic collected and reprocessed here, which is why it is grey rather than the black you may be used to — no pigment has been added to hide what it is made of.

Sized to real bins

The three sizes match the bins people actually own: a small kitchen bin, a standard household bin, and the large outdoor bin a household fills in a week. Each one is cut long enough to fold over the rim, which is the difference between a bag that stays put and one that disappears into the bin the first time someone drops something heavy in it.
