Biodegradable Lawn &
Leaf Bags
Biodegradable Lawn & Leaf bags are a full 33
gallon capacity, measuring 32.5 inches wide and 39 inches tall. Our Lawn & Leaf
bags are durable and sturdy enough to handle the toughest yard jobs. They even
come with a removable tear-strip at the top of each bag for easy tying.
Many communities have
banned the use of regular 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.
Usage
testing confirms that consumers significantly prefer Biodegradable 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 these bags “give”,
allowing more waste to be collected per bag. They also prefer bags made from
corn to either bags made from trees or petroleum.
Biodegradable 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
Biodegradable can stimulate bag decomposition within three or four days.

additives to enhance decomposition. The bags biodegrade naturally
when expose to the earth’s elements and micro-organisms in the soil. |

They “breathe”,
which allows heat and moisture to escape or evaporate. This feature
reduces bacterial build-up of collected waste, thus reducing odor. |
