4 Gallon Trash Bags by Forid (Product Review)



I got this pack of 4 gallon Trash Bags to take with us on our camping trip last week. Our 5 gallon bucket was in use at home so we brought a 4 gallon bucket from a donut shop. This bucket serves as our camp toilet.



It was windy on our trip so we put a couple large rocks in the bucket, then used one of the bags to line the toilet. Every time we visit our Toilet Tent, we remove the bag afterward; it's easy to just spin the bag and tie it off. We immediately put a new bag in for the next person making a trip to the potty, as common courtesy since they may be in a hurry!



We did have a hard time determining how to get the first bag open. Once we realized how they were sealed, it was easy from then on. A couple times on the first day the bag stretched and tore a tiny bit, but that wasn't a quality issue. Four gallon buckets are a touch wider at the top than your typical standard five gallon, so a 4 gallon bag for a 4 gallon bucket is a tight fit. The biggest test last week was seeing if any bags leaked the toilet contents, either into the bucket or on us as we escorted tied bags to the master trash container. I am very happy and grateful to report we didn't have any leakages whatsoever the entire week!



There are various colors available for the bags; we got the silver & black. There are no odors, and with 6 rolls (20 bags each, equalling 120 bags total) we have enough to keep a couple rolls in our emergency kit. Now that we are home, the rest are going to be used in the rooms with smaller trash cans. https://www.amazon.com/small-garbage-bags/dp/B07DKZLPCM/ref?tag=jelenadeal-20
