Q: what bags fit this can? The usual 13 gallon bags that I use don't fit.

submitted by emma - 6 years ago

  • A: Hello Emma - This Hefty trash can was designed to be used with any 13 gallon tall kitchen trash bag.

  • A: 13 gallon trash bag does not fit to this trash can. I have to use 30 gallon trash bag to fit this one. Even 20 gallon did not fit.

    submitted byDad - 6 years ago

  • A: If someone is struggling to use a typical 13 gallon trash bag, there is a good chance that they are not putting it in correctly. There are two notches on the top rim of the trashcan close to hinge. Hitch the liner to one notch. Then fold it over the rim of the can. Lastly hitch the liner to the other notch. It will be held tight and fits perfectly. Also, since the trashcan has the narrow sides on the front and back you will want the seems of the trash bag facing the front and back of the can. The first time I put the liner in, I did not see the notches for a minute. If you tried to fit the bag over the entire rim of the can or turned it 90 degrees orienting the seams toward the sides, it would not fit. The can is well designed and the liner fits snuggly when you use the notches. Great design for a can at this price!

    submitted bySara - 6 years ago

  • A: Kitchen 13-gallon trash bag fits perfect, but you must fit it around the front curve or one notch first. If you try to hook it around both notches first, you’ll never get the trash bag on.

    submitted byAngela - 1 month ago

  • A: As one answer said, the 13 gallon tall kitchen bags fit perfect. You MUST use the two notches at the back, then it will fit over the front lip. This keeps it from getting stuck in the hinge of the lid. Orient the bag correctly, use the notches at the back, and a 13 gallon tall kitchen bag fits just perfect.

Q: I boughtvthis trash cans many years ago. I never used the locking mode as I have no small children or pets. Well, somehow I managed to lock it and I don't know how to unlock it! Can you help me?

submitted by vikkih - 1 month ago

  • A: Hi vikkih - to unlock, slide the silver latch forward and the bin will open. Here is a link to a video that shows a similar Hefty trash can - at around 29 seconds in, you can see how the lock slides backwards to engage the lock, you will just need to reverse this motion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TapTlMD1SM

Better than the fancy trashcans

It’s very durable and gets the job done. I bought one 2 years ago and the locking feature is great. My dogs love to trash dig and this keeps them out….when we remember to lock it. It also holds odors very well. For $20 you can’t go wrong !

No dog

Small fits in small area. My dog doesn’t like it because she can’t get in it. That was reason for buying and it works great keeping her out.

Nice, slim kitchen waste can

Hefty has always made sturdy items and this trash can is no exception! The price is low and the quality, for the money, is high. No buyers remorse.

breaks easily

My second one just broke in less than five months. The last one worked less than a year also. The locking mechanism is not easy to push open and closed and breaks easily.
