🗑️ Ruffies 981587 Recycling Bags, Pack of 30, 13 Gallon Review

These are great bin liners at a great price. I have found that all the well known brands with fancy handles and extra stretch etc are quite expensive. Let's be honest; I buy what I want, even in the trash! They work great and the savings are great too.

These bags are opaque, not transparent. Therefore, they CANNOT be used for recycling, at least in New York and most likely elsewhere. I wasted my money and will only use it as bin liners I don't need.

What can you say about transparent plastic bags - they are like that. I use them for recycling. I was hoping to use them in large outdoor bins, but they are better suited for the kitchen. What I ended up using them for was in my shredder. I put them in a shredder can, it makes cleaning really easy, and the day of processing it all goes to the curb.

Be careful what you buy - it's 13 gallons which is the size of a tall kitchen bin. They are not 100% transparent but they are transparent so obviously the contents are recyclable but if you want fully transparent bags this is not for you. We recently moved into an apartment and all recycling must be in a clear plastic bag. It took me a heck of a lot of time to find clear bags and was told one major store no longer sells them. Urgggg. I ordered them and they are exactly what I was hoping for…
