Below are dimensions for the BAGS we stock.
These are not dimensions for trash cans.TIP: Bag dimensions need to be larger than the trash can to allow for overhang, grasp, and closure.
linear low density (lld) trash bags are strong, flexible and highly resistant to
puncturing and tearing. They are ideal for kitchen trash,
construction debris or trash that includes glass, metal, wood,
cardboard or irregular shaped items.
high density (hd) can liners are a more cost-effective option. Manufactured
from different resins, they are thinner than Linear Low
Density bags and are not as puncture resistant, yet they can
carry very heavy loads.
Low Density (LD) trash bags are strong, flexible and highly resistant to puncturing and tearing. They are ideal for kitchen trash, construction debris or trash that includes glass, metal, wood, cardboard or irregularly shaped items. The thickness of a Low Density bag is measured in Mil so a higher Mil count means a thicker bag. The Mil count of our trash bags range from 0.7 Mil to 6.0 Mil. Use a higher Mil count bag for sharper, heavier, or larger amounts of trash.
High Density (HD) can liners, because of their chemical composition, are a very cost-effective option, Manufactured from different resins, they are thinner than Linear Low Density bags and are not as puncture resistant, however, they can carry very heavy loads. High Density liners are ideal for office waste, bathroom waste and for trash cans located in many public areas where sharp trash is not deposited. Not recommended for kitchen trash or trash with sharp edges such as glass, nails, wood, or cardboard.
These heavy grade high density trash bags are 16 microns thick. If you’re not throwing away anything super sharp, garbage bags made from High Density Polyethene (or HDPE, if you like) are a really smart choice for kitchens, bathrooms, or offices. Because they can hold so much weight in spite of being thinner than your average germ, high density can liners work well with wet trash, like food waste. They also cost quite a bit less than their low-density counterparts, because they use a lot less material when they are made.
