trash bags

Disposable waste receptacles

Trash bags are disposable plastic bags designed to line waste containers and hold garbage for disposal.

They come in various sizes, thicknesses, and colors, with drawstring or tie closures being common features.

Heavy-duty versions handle sharp or wet refuse, while scented varieties mask odors.
