I’ve been using the Ultrasac Contractor Bags 42 Gallon for heavier cleanup jobs, and the thickness is immediately noticeable. These don’t feel flimsy when you open them, and they hold their shape well when filled with bulky or sharp-edged debris. The 3 mil thickness makes a real difference compared to standard trash bags, especially when dealing with construction scraps or heavy household cleanouts. The flap ties are sturdy and make it easier to close and move the bags without worrying about tearing at the top. I haven’t had issues with splitting and no leaks so far, even when the bags were pretty full. Although I have been using them for actual trash, the main reason I got them was to store soil in manageable batches when I do some yard maintenance when the weather gets better. Getting bins or other containers was not financially feasible or logical, and then it was suggested to use contractor bags. The durability I've seen already makes me confident that I could fill 5+ gallons of soil with no problem. It'll be easy to carry, too, without worrying about it breaking through the bottom. The quality feels appropriate for professional or industrial use, and the value seems reasonable for the price range considering how durable they are and how much abuse they can handle. Read more
I recently purchased the Ultrasac Contractor Bags 42 Gallon (20 PACK/w FLAP TIES), and I can confidently say these are the best contractor bags I’ve ever used! The 3 MIL thickness makes them incredibly durable, handling everything from sharp construction debris to heavy yard waste without a single tear or puncture. I used them during a major home renovation, and they held up perfectly against drywall scraps, broken tiles, and even jagged wood pieces. The 42-gallon capacity is generous, allowing me to tackle large cleanups with fewer bags, and the flap ties are a game-changer, easy to secure and keep everything contained without needing extra ties. The bags are made from 90% recycled material, which is a big plus for me as I try to make more sustainable choices. They’re also proudly made in the USA, and the quality reflects that craftsmanship. Another standout feature is how easy they are to open and use, thanks to the gusseted design. They fit snugly in most standard bins, with no annoying overhang. At just around $1 per bag, they’re a fantastic value for such heavy-duty performance. Whether you’re a contractor, tackling a big home project, or just need reliable bags for tough jobs, these Ultrasac bags are an absolute must-have. Highly recommend giving them a try, you won’t be disappointed. Read more
These trash bags truly impressed me. They’re thick, durable, and hold up just as well as the big-name brands—if not better. I was surprised at how tough they are; no tearing, no stretching too thin, and no worrying about leaks when taking out a heavy load. Even when the bag is packed full, it still feels secure and reliable. What I love most is the value. You get the same strength and performance you’d expect from the top brands, but at a much more affordable price. They tie easily, stay sealed, and make taking out the trash a lot less stressful. If you’re looking for dependable, heavy-duty trash bags that won’t break the bank, these are absolutely worth the switch. Read more

Strong bag, individually rolled instead of a perforated continuing line of them. HORRIBLE STALE CIGARETTE SMELL. The product was good but I will never repurchase due to my kitchen constantly smelling like we have cigarette butts near the trash. Read more
