What do you do with your left over pellet bags?

Trash! Plus this saves me a few bucks by not buying/using more plastic trash bags. Bags aren't worth anything in this market, not even is you have a truck load full of them!

I'm SURE those are just for snackin'....case you get hungry while waiting...

Any gardeners here? A bag split will be 16 inches wide by 4 feet long...and many taped together(maybe tarp tape?) would make a long white row of plastic and holes could be cut for the plants...would eliminate weeding(you know how much a hassle that is!) and retain moisure under it...and reflect sunlight as well. A real waste if they are buried in a landfill...it is time to get past that idea.

Right now, we're using them in the kitchen garbage can- fit perfect & a few others. Once in awhile I may have to clean the can if we get some dribbles. I like the mulch idea- I may try that in certain areas. There's no way I'm throwing these way- I'll use them for insulating the garage or something...halloween costumes, skirt the bottom of the foundation with them,,lol

Fit in a 5 gallon pail nicley for garbage in the garage. The tops of the opened bags end up there.

That's exactly what I do as well. However, at the rate that i am using them, I'll have a lifetime supply by the end of the winter!

Save them till the end of the year and take them out on a nice day to to court yard in our apartment complex. We put the bags in a large pile and put a few old tires on top to hold the bags down, the wind swirls pretty good in the courtyard. Some of the neighbors throw on some old baby diapers just for the fun of it and we light the entire pile with a little diesel fuel, who we kidding a few gallons is good. We do this in the day time because it makes pretty black smoke. Everyone enjoys a good fire.

if your over 6 feet, you might roll up and use as a hat then
somebody has to show me how to copy what I said, and put it down like eric just did to my post. I can type 100 word per minute, and can barely turn on a computer,,,,,,,,life is not fair, but I have the best g/f in the world, so that makes up for it.

For the kitchen garbage can, haven't noticed any leaks.

Also to put aluminum cans in to haul out to the crushing area. I probably have $300 worth of cans out there waiting to be processed. I need to get on that.

The bags are also useful to hold more bags; talk about intelligent packaging!

if you've got all those cans {300}- then you have enough to buy another ton of pellets!! Assuming you have some 15 centers in there...lol -Lucky you...

my wife is now putting horse manure in them and offering them to anyone who wants some crude fertilizer. go figure...

I'll be lucky if I can get someone else to crush them. Right now, it's a huge mess.

I recycle mine but I've gotten some good ideas here for other uses. If I had a young child I'd cut a few holes in 'em and make a rain poncho.

Perfect for laundry room trash and barn/grain room trash can liners; just the perfect size and production equals demand.
