You are definitely not putting the bags in your trash can correctly. With this method, your trash bags will no longer tear.
Here’s a little tip that will change your life! The Internet and social networks are full of tips and tricks to make your daily life easier. Whether you’re looking for a solution to eliminate pests, the best way to remove a stain from your clothes, or the right way to clean a frying pan, the answer is just a few clicks away.
We came across a trick and discovered that all our lives, we have been putting the garbage bag in the trash can wrong, like many people. Do you think you have the right method? Maybe you do. However, did you know that the outside of the bag is actually the inside?
Most people insert their trash bag by shaking it and unfolding it completely, then pushing it to the bottom of the trash can before folding the edges around the rim of the container. While this method may seem intuitive, it can cause problems when removing the bag once it’s full. Air trapped between the bag and the wall of the trash can can create suction, making removal difficult and increasing the risk of tears.
To avoid these problems, there is a simple, but often overlooked, technique for correctly putting on a trash bag. Here are the steps to follow in this video.
Instead of simply opening the bag and placing it in, folding the flaps outwards, place it inside out as soon as you have opened it, with the opening of the bag on the top edge of the bin and leaving the rest of the bag still inside out “like a hat”. Then, gently push the bag into the bin. You will find that the bag naturally expands without trapping air, reducing the risk of suction when you want to remove it once full.
When the bag is completely inside the trash can, pull the edges slightly to adjust them around the rim of the trash can. The bag is now in place, ready to be used without the risk of tearing or leaking. This way, the finishes stay inside and it is easier to place the trash bag in the trash can.
