Reli.Biodegradable 13 Gallon Trash Bags | 100 Count | ASTM D6954 | Green | Eco-Friendly | Oxobiodegradable Under Certain Conditions (See Product Description)

For the company to use the word “biodegradable” in the item description is not only misleading, but inaccurate. Total shame on this company. Read further into the description and the bags are referred to as “degradable”. This means the bag will break down into microplastics which can still enter the environment. In a way, this is worse. Stay away. And please do your research before choosing green bags. Buy something BPI certified (of course, these are not). Too many companies are profiting off of products that claim to be green(er) but really aren’t, thanks to greenness being “trendy”.

First I'd like to say how well the bag held up. When I first saw the bag, I was worried about how well the bag would hold up. These things are much tougher than I thought. As long you use your head and don't jam stuff into them or overfill, these things will hold up every time. I'm about 300 bags in and zero rips. Now speaking to the biodegradable aspect, people who bash these because of the EPI additive and that they are degradable, not biodegradable. The EPI additive starts the degradation process to the point where the bag becomes biodegradable, resulting in no harm to plants or animals. I say if you want a bag that dissolves over a short time, buy compostable bags, not biodegradable.

Over the years I stayed away from brand name bags. They are overpriced, had a hard time fitting a lot of stuff in them and I refuse to pay for commercials I don’t watch in the first place. Came across those bags and like the others from this company they are awesome. Plenty of space( must be the cut and shape of the bags that You can fit a lot more in ) very sturdy, don’t leak and environment friendly!😁Well I be honest I did not by them because of being environmentally friendly. I ran out of mine and those where the fasted and cheapest I could get on Amazon. I didn’t even read that they were environmental., was in a hurry. Thought it seems like a great idea if they brake down a lot faster then the regular ones. Just not sure what the perfect conditions has to be to deteriorate faster, since it didn’t say. Anyway I am very happy with them and I’ll try to get them again next time😉

Got this thinking it would be more eco friendly but they're terrible. No drawstrings so there's no way to close it. Says 13 gallon but definitely smaller. Very thin lining and tears easily. Doesn't contain any smell so you can smell the trash in it even with a lid on the trash can. Do not recommend unless you have a small trash can and only put a few things in it.

Everyone knows better than to use plastic now..big package, use them for everything as well..got a Christmas card from my recycling company...thought we were a family of 5...nope 2...I purchase scrap size and the 30 gallon big ones too...too thin? Cheap enough to double up for dumping the 20 lbs of cat litter.. I've tried multiple companies..thus us my winner.STOP THROWING PLASTIC AWAY.. YOU KNOW BETTER...😇
