  • Fits 13-gallon tall kitchen trash containers – round or rectangular
  • The patented, award-winning new product that will change the way people feel about dealing with trash

EZ Bagz are always there Instead of having to replace a trash bag each time one is removed, EZ Bagz offers a convenient solution by nesting 12 bags into one thoughtfully engineered unit. Secured with a flex cord, the 12-bag unit stays put in your trash container while you remove each top bag, leaving a fresh bag ready to use immediately. No more worries about finding a bare trash container when you want to throw something away – EZ Bagz are always there! Unlike ordinary plastic bags, which can take up to 1000 years to degrade, EZ Bagz are 100-percent safely degraded within 12-24 months in a landfill or controlled composting environment. EZ Bags are made from 100-percent degradable, non-toxic polymer that is actually stronger and more puncture-resistant than most conventional trash bags available on the market today. These bags are not affected by moisture and can be used multiple times until the degradation process begins in the landfill or under controlled composting conditions.
