Frequently Asked Questions
What size bin liner do I need for a 240L wheelie bin?
A 240-litre bin liner, sized at around 1000mm wide by 1500mm long, fits a standard 240L wheelie or council bin. This size leaves enough overhang to fold over the rim, keeping the liner in place and making it easy to lift out when full.
What is the difference between a bin bag and a bin liner?
In Australia, the two terms describe the same product. A bin bag or bin liner sits inside a bin to hold rubbish and keep the bin clean, and both are available in light-, heavy-, and extra-heavy-duty grades.
Are clear bin bags better than black ones?
Clear bin bags let staff see the contents, which suits recycling streams and sites that need to check waste before removal. Black bin bags hide general waste and are the common choice for offices, kitchens and public areas.
What thickness should I choose for heavy-duty bin bags?
Thickness is measured in microns. Light waste suits about 30 microns, general commercial waste suits 40 to 50 microns, and sharp or heavy loads suit 75 microns and above for better tear and puncture resistance.
Can I order bin bags and bin liners in bulk?
Yes. Plastpack supplies bin liners by the carton to businesses across Australia, with custom sizes, thicknesses and print available. Call our team for bulk pricing and help match the right liner to your bins.
