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.
The classic size for traditional tall kitchen cans, 12 to 16 gallon garbage bags are workhorses around the house. These great medium sized trash bags come in a wide variety of colors, thicknesses, and excellent resin materials. You can choose high-density plastic for strong, lightweight, economical waste basket liners which stand up well to wet garbage, or low-density plastic for thick garbage bags with extra puncture resistance.
