These bags are perfect for the Subekyu Small Hanging Collapsible Kitchen Trash Can
I like all things "Green" and these biodegradable trash bags work perfectly with any small bathroom waste basket and especially with the Subekyu Small Hanging Collapsible Kitchen Trash Can.

Terrific for my green food waste container
I love these bags! A couple years ago we started curb side pickup of food waste on our recycling day. The county provided our choice of a green bin which we are allowed to put food scraps and yard waste either right in the bin or in a compostable bag in the bin. I chose the smaller container which is about the size of my regular kitchen trashcan. But up till now the largest compostable bag I could find was 13 gallons which were much too small to efficiently secure in the bin. So I had them hanging by a big rubber band but it took a lot of effort to get the food into the bin without dropping it. These 33 gallon bags are wonderful. I fits nicely in the bin and I do have it secured with a large rubber band. Now it's very easy to get the food into the bin.

Progreen Kitchen waste bags
I've used these for years and reorder annually. The 100 count box fits nicely in a kitchen drawer for handy access. Good performance- they never leak or tear. A good eco-friendly option!

I feel better using these and not adding more plastic bag waste to our earth.
Ive been trying to be more conscientious about my habits and conscious about ways that I am contributing to environmental issues with waste. Although my apartment provides free poop bags, they are not biodegradable. I did research on truly biodegradable bags and these seemed to fit the bill. I feel better knowing that Im no longer adding two plastic poop bags each day to our landfill. I was worried the bags might be too thin or not to my liking but so far no issues (I have a pug). The seller provided this information in an email which some may find helpful in sifting through information about truly biodegradable bags: Hello, On Dropy if we search "biodegradable dog poop bags",the top ranking best seller is the "earth rated ",and some other brands claiming oxo-biodegradable,containing EPI as additives for biodegradable. They are very hot selling indeed.But academically and the reality is,those bags are fake eco-friendly bags. They use 1% additives to mix with plastic and help the bags break down into tiny pieces. It makes the plastic even harder to recycle,and the tiny pieces of plastic become more dangerous for animals and earth. Tiny plastics gos into animals stomach and blood,causing diseases. The additives contain heavy metal ingridents and harmful to the earth. Many people don't know it's fake eco-friendly. As a professional sales director who has been in the biodegradable bags industry for more than 10 years,I feel so hurt to see the situation. Let's stop buying the so called "biodegradable bags" which containes plastic but use additives to help break down ! For saving the environment for our future and our kids,we need to learn how to identity whether the bags are real eco-friendly or not. EcoPettie dog poop bags are made of corn starch,totally organic. You can trust us and use them. Hope you could make a review for sharing your using experience. For more people to recognize the real eco-friendly bags. OK ? Thank you in advance. Yours Sincerely
