The contractor bags are strong enough to contain pieces of sheetrock, moldings and other debris without tearing. The sanitation department was able to pick them up with heavy equipment & dispose of them without making a worse mess.
Pros: Durable, Sturdy
Yes, I recommend this product.

These bags are great for getting rid of heavy trash items that would easily tear through the regular trash bag. I can get a lot of trash into one bag and not worry it's going to fall apart before I get it to the curb on trash day.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I bought these trash bags to try something different then what I usually get. I have have to say that these bags are better than the other ones. Not only to they perform great, but they are also a cheaper alternative. Great bags for a great price.

These bags really help when cleaning up! I was having major construction work done in my home and they really came in handy in removing the debris. A regular trash bag wouldn't have held up!

This product would have been fine if they had a tie at the top. Because it is so hard to tie and it's an even thicker plastic that makes it Very difficult to tie up.I would not buy these again.
No, I do not recommend this product.
