Frequently Asked Questions About Contractor Bags

What are contractor bags?

Contractor bags are a type of heavy-duty trash bag intended for construction and demolition sites. They have thicker walls to stand up to heavy loads and larger debris.  We offer contractor bags in 42-gallon and 55-gallon sizes to help clean up any job site. 

How thick are contractor bags?

Contractor trash bags have thick 3 mil, 4 mil, or 6 mil walls to stand up to bulky or sharp debris commonly found on job sites. They are more resistant to punctures and tears compared to traditional 1.2 mil household trash bags.

3 mil is the standard thickness for contractor garbage bags, but we offer 4 mil and 6 mil contractor trash bags for heavier-duty jobs. 

What plastic are contractor bags made of?

Contractor trash bags are made from linear low-density polyethylene. LLDPE resins have good flexibility to resist punctures and a higher tensile strength than high-density polyethylene.
