What Actually Fits in 8 Gallon Bags at 24 x 40 in
Capacity on a bag is set by the seam, not the mouth. This one is 24 in wide by 40 in long with a double sealed bottom. It is rated to carry 45 lbs without splitting at a corner. It drops into a standard 13 gallon can as a liner, which is how most drying rooms end up using it.
Why True Liberty Bags Are Nylon Rather Than Poly
The material is the whole argument. These are food grade nylon, FDA approved and BPA free, where most storage bags of this size are polyethylene. Nylon holds a far better aroma barrier, which is why crops come out of a two week cure smelling the way they went in. It also resists water, fat, oil and grease, so the same bag handles a wet job without weeping through. Then there is the temperature range, and it is worth stating correctly: -100 F to 400 F, or -73 C to 204 C. That is freezer to oven in one bag, and the low end is a minus rather than a plus. Tear and puncture resistance is the last piece. A bag carrying 45 lbs of wet material down a hallway gets handled roughly, and nylon takes that better than poly of the same gauge. Made in the USA, 25 per pack.
