BioBag Biodegradable Lawn and Leaf Bags
BioBag Lawn & Leaf bags are a full 33 gallon capacity.
Our Compostable Lawn & Leaf bags are roomy, durable and sturdy. Each BioBag includes a removable tear-strip at the top for easy closure.
BioBags Are Made From Renewable Materials - No Plastic
Some manufacturers are blending additives to polyethylene to produce 'degradable' bags. Unfortunately, this process fragments the bags into pieces of plastic debris that do not meet the ASTM 6400 standard for biodegradable and compostable plastics like BioBags do.
BioBags are based on starch, vegetable oil and other renewable resources. No polyethylene (plastic) is used in the production process. BioBags are fully certified by the Biodegradable Products Institute to be 100% biodegradable and 100% compostable.
Many communities have banned the use of conventional plastic bags for yard waste removal, because polyethylene-based plastic bags can not be composted with the yard waste or burned.
Until now, the alternative has been paper bags. Studies show paper bags are difficult for consumers to use and store, have a limited fill capacity (usually 28 gallons), and do not hold up well in wet weather. BioBag Lawn & Leaf bags hold up better in rainy weather. We do not recommend storing them on wet grass as it may start to stimulate decomposition.
Usage testing confirms that consumers significantly prefer BioBag Lawn & Leaf bags to paper bags for the collection of yard waste.
They find our 5 bag retail packs easy to carry and store. Consumers like that fact that BioBags “give”, allowing more waste to be collected per bag. They also prefer bags made from corn to either bags made from trees or petroleum.
BioBag Lawn & Leaf bags can be set at curbside for up to 12 days before the collected waste will begin to break the bag down. We strongly recommend that wet grass clippings be left on the lawn, where the clippings will quickly biodegrade and add nutrient value to your lawn. Placing wet grass clippings in either a paper bag or a BioBag can stimulate bag decomposition within three or four days.
BioBag Lawn and Leaf Bags meet ASTM D6400 Requirements and California law SB 1749 for biodegradable and compostable product claims.
Each box contains (5) 33 gallon bags and measure 32.5" x 39" and are 1.0 mil thick
