Garbage day is a weekly struggle in our house. You’d think that these kids had never been asked to gather the garbage in the house, put it in the garbage can for collection, and walk it around to the front yard. Every single time it’s a struggle.
And guess what? We keep making more trash.
I’ve used a lot of trash bags in my day (21+ years of marriage equals a lot of garbage. Ha!) and I’ve come to the conclusion that trash bags are one of those areas that you don’t want to skimp on. I mean, who wants stinky, two-day-old trash falling all over the floor because the bag was too weak to keep it all in?
Hefty can handle our trash. It’s kind of like having WWE Wrestler John Cena handle my garbage instead of my kids…
Hefty Ultra Strong Kitchen Trash Bags are Hefty’s BEST kitchen bag ever (I seriously love these things!) and the fact that they are now at a new low price (that’s even lower than the competitor’s kitchen bags) is a bonus for me.

Not only are they a great value, but they’ve got Arm & Hammer patented odor neutralizer, Active Tear Resistant Technology for superior strength (no more holes!), and they come with a break resistant grip drawstring.
But garbage bags aren’t only for collecting trash. I don’t know about you, but we use our garbage bags for tons of things around the house!
20 Unique Uses for Trash bags (That Go Beyond Collecting Garbage)
You’d be amazed at all of the things that you can use trash bags for – especially Hefty Ultra Strong, since they are so durable! Here are just a few ways we’ve used Hefty kitchen bags around the home and on family outings:
- Rain poncho
- Line cooler and fill with ice
- Under-bed blanket storage
- Halloween decorations (white bag + stuff & tie off “head” = ghost!)
- Quick DIY costume
- Sunshade
- Household donations
- Laundry bag (great for carrying dirty bedding)
- Separate dirty laundry in luggage while traveling
- Protect floor when painting
- Keep arm or leg casts or stitches dry for bathing or rainy days
- Picnic tablecloth
- Protect hanging clothes (poke a hole in the bottom of a bag and drape over clothes on a hanger)
- Hiding birthday and holiday gifts
- Seat protection in the car for wet and messy passengers
- Makeshift umbrella
- Game seat (stack of newspaper wrapped in a trash bag = padded water-proof stadium or grass seating)
- Backpack cover for rainy day walks to school
- Store holiday decorations
- Dirty shoe covers (for family members who don’t want to take messy shoes off when they come in the house)
