Great bags. Who wrote the description?

I am building a lawn care business and I insist on the most sustainable products available. I bought several biodegradable bags from a local store and they were utterly useless at almost a dollar each. They suspected they might be old. They were still too young. These bags are the best in every way. I do the spring cleaning with them so there are a lot of branches and sticks sticking out. With other bags, I think they were called bio bags, the chopstick holes would turn into tears and then the tears would flow, effectively tearing the bag open. Not with these bags. The holes don't turn into giant teardrops, and the pockets can hold as much weight as I can stuff and squeeze into. The only criticism of the description. I immediately saw 120 bags and thought it was an amazing deal. I'll count the next box but I think it was closer to 40 packs. I also don't know how to get 50 bags out of 4 rolls. If there is more to a role, it makes no sense. 50 Γ· 4 = 12.5 bags per roll? Maybe it's 48 bags. I also failed to tie the fasteners as stated. Although I don't think I would use them. I wish they had tie clips. Maybe 1 in 5 or 10 packets that I'm not careful with and end up with a big hole. You really have to be a little more careful with the bag. But I don't mind if I can prevent the hundreds of sacks that most companies go through at this time of year. Edit: I see 40 bags in the photos now. These are 4 rolls of 10. That's almost a dollar for a $35 package. Having 3 different batches of the same product is ridiculous. However, these are the largest compostable bags I can find. If you need thicker stuff and don't mind a smaller size/capacity, check out disposable compostable bags.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled
