Q: How long will they hold up in a bin until they start falling apart?
submitted by sk24 - 30 days ago
A: That answer really depends on what you put in them, especially at the bottom of the bin. We generally advise not to putt acidic items, such as citrus or coffee grounds, at the bottom, as that will make the bottom of the bags disintegrate faster. For the most part, the bags are designed to not significantly break down until they reach a composting facility or your backyard.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super strong, no breakage, and I love the extra long drawstrings. I love the matte feel of the bags. My only complaint is that it’s a little narrow at the top.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these matter compostable kitchen bags. They are non-scented and they have a draw string closure. I like the fact that they compost completely within 12 months. Do not overfill them because if you do they will tear. If you're looking for Earth friendly bags, these are for you.
Great Trash Bags!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These compostable kitchen bags are perfect for our recycling bin! They are surprisingly durable but also lightweight. I like that the bag identifies it as compostable as well. There is no scent to it whatsoever. It fit very well in my bin. These are a 10 out of 10 for sure!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These trash bags have held up very well for us with a variety of liquid and salad trash that we have thrown into them. I like that they include messaging that keeps you inspired and motivated to live sustainably. They are large enough that you can comfortably fit them on your trash can and you don't have to rip them just trying to get them to stay on

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm actually really impressed by these trash bags, the durability is amazing and they are a good size. Usually with other trash bag brands you can't stuff the bag without it ripping, this one is very dependable and strong. Plus is environmentally friendly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This trash bag is extremely durable and reliable. We have a big family and use our kitchen frequently, so the trash can fills up quickly. Even when the bag is heavy and packed full, it has never leaked or torn. The material is strong, making it easy to carry and throw away without worrying about rips. The size is accurate and fits perfectly in our kitchen trash can, staying in place without slipping down. It’s very convenient, practical, and has made managing kitchen waste much easier. Highly recommended for households that need strong, dependable trash bags.
great bag

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the option to compost at home, so I'm making the most of it with these organic garbage bags. I recycle as much as I can. These bags don't have any scent and once used, they don't give off the smell of rotting garbage. The size is ideal for a large kitchen. I've never had one rip, and the handles are sturdy with the adjustable drawstring. You can't really see what's inside the bag either. Although they're thin, they're sturdy.
Safe for the Environment and Safe For you too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the Matter Compostable Tall Kitchen Bags, and they’re a great eco-friendly swap for traditional trash bags. They’re made from plants, certified compostable, and even come with a drawstring closure — which makes tying them up easy and mess-free. Earth-friendly — they break down in compost instead of sitting in a landfill. Surprisingly durable — split resistant, so they don’t tear easily when filled. Non-scented — perfect if you’re sensitive to strong fragrances. Fits perfectly in my 13-gallon kitchen trash can. It feels good knowing I can manage daily waste while reducing my environmental footprint. If you’re looking for a reliable, sustainable option, these are definitely worth trying. eco-friendly, strong, and practical.
These are so good my whole family loves them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just tried the Matter Compostable Tall Kitchen Garbage Bags and I’m so impressed! 🌱✨ They’re made from plants, not plastic, and are fully certified compostable. What really surprised me is how strong they are — no rips, no leaks, even with heavy food scraps. The drawstring makes taking out the trash super easy and mess-free. It feels good knowing I can make such a simple swap in my kitchen that’s better for the planet without sacrificing convenience. If you’ve been looking for a sustainable upgrade, these are definitely worth trying. 💚♻️

Wanted to love these so much, but they leak almost immediately/start to decompose before you even have the chance to take it out of the trash can. Have to double bag just to get it down the chute so it’s ultimately still very wasteful and not worth the money paid.
Strong enough

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] That’s so great for environment when they’re compostable. I was used to think it will be easy to be break with the compostable trash bag, but NO, this product is strong enough. It also doesn’t have a plastic scent and fit perfectly with my kitchen trash can.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m very impressed with these bags. They are very strong and flexible and a great size. I usually try to use recycled products when available but I wasn’t too sure how strong these types of trash bags would work. But they are great! I recommend these bags. Thank you for this full complimentary box.
These are solid!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a bit skeptical that these garbage bags wouldn't be able to handle some flex as I have always used heavy duty kitchen garbage bags but I was pleasantly surprised that these do a fabulous job!! Plus, I love how wonderful they are for the environment! Definitely a great choice if you don't mind spending a bit extra to help out the environment!
Just ok

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like that these are compostable but they don’t feel as strong and durable as other trash bags. They feel like things will poke through them. And they’re see through. Good but not my favorite.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these bags bc they compost so easily. Having said that…..they take some getting used to bc they compost easily. Yes I said it twice…..the bags break down easily but they can break down before you are done filling them. I started keeping all my food scraps in the freezer until just before I am ready to put the bag out for pickup, which works like a charm and is easy to do. The bags are nice quality, easy to use, and work just like any other bag. Highly recommend!
