Bagster Bag’s Unique Waste Solution
I’ve been hearing more and more about the Bagster Bag from Waste Management so I thought it would be good to share this new concept with all of you. To help spread the word about this great new way to clear up construction waste the folks at Bagster are going to sponsor a $50 Visa Gift Card for one of our lucky readers. Before I go into the rules for this giveaway I’d like you to read the information below about Bagster Bags.

I think it is a great idea if you need temporary dump space for a project.
I think that this Bagster System is a wonderful idea.
The Bagster Bag system sounds great. Too bad it’s not available yet in my area.
I LOVE this idea! easy way to organize
Sounds incredible! We’re always having a hard time disposing of our bigger trash items.
I’m sorry, the google doc isn’t working for me. I like you on Facebook with my username Mary Happymommy and I wrote on your Facebook wall.
I think the Bagster Bag system sounds really useful – I’m not much of a DIYer, but I forwarded this article to my brother, who is!
I think it is a great idea.

I have accumulated a lot of junk. A Bagster Bag sounds perfect.
Thanks for a great giveaway!

What a fantastic idea!! Love that we can have it as long as we need it. Sometimes our projects run way past what we think. Much better than having a big old dumpster sitting in my yard.
My Dad is a DIY kind of person and I think he would benefit greatly from it! He is always finding something to do and make so he won’t succumb to boredom.
My dad has used these bags several times and swears by them. I will definitely try it out
Like you on fb and commented (Cynthia Conley)
i think its cool
I love this idea! And it’s much more cost effective than hiring a dumpster. We’ll be doing a bathroom renovation, so I will be going to their website for more info. Thanks.
I like the system it is convenient and organized
I know that My husband would absolutely love the bagster system. he’s always looking for a better way to sore his tools.
Bagster Bag system would be great when installing new trim around the house.
This would have been great when I put on my new roof a few years back.
I think the Bagster is a GREAT idea and I am surprised that nobody thought of it before. I used to go to the construction sites every day with my dad during the summers, and I was shocked at what pig stys they looked like. If the Bagster Bags eliminate even half of problem, they are worth it.
What a great idea! Definitely filed this one for future reference!
The bag sounds awesome! It would be great to have when we redo our kitchen. THanks for the chance!
I think it’s a great idea. I’ve seen it on tv and liked it then. I think it’s a lot better than a big old dumpster outside. thank you!
Hope to win !!!!

The bagster would come in handy. I always have such a mess when working.
I think it is a great idea and I can see us utilizing it.
I think it’s great! We just finished a couple of projects on our house and this would have been so useful and really save filling up the polycart! I love this idea!

The bagster system looks really good.
Cool idea, wish I had it last week when I ripped down the wallpaper in two rooms, it would have been soooooo handy!
The Bagster Bag looks excellent – what a great way to collect all the leftover “stuff” and have it hauled away!

Sounds like the ticket for small remodels. Plus you can keep it for as long as you need it…
Great idea! Thanks for the giveaway.
I think this would be very helpful for organizing.
Thanks for the chance.

i think it is a very nifty product
I think it’s great mainly because I think it would not only be easier to set up (won’t need a big truck to bring around the dumpster) and it would probably save money!
I like that it holds a ton of garbage in weight
That is pretty cool, would be handy for any do it yourself project!
Sounds practical for small home improvement projects

I think it’s great for big projects but I wonder if it’s cost effective.
Great giveaway! thanks! Janna Johnson jannajanna@hotmail.com

This would make a great gift for my father-in-law! He does roofing and I know he would love to bring this to his jobs to make his easier!
I think the Bagster Bag system is great for homeowners who want to clean up remodeling debris and other such things at their own pace. I may be using Bagster soon for a project soon.

looks pretty handy
I think it’s a great idea! Unfortunately, it is not in Oregon yet.

I think these bags are perfect for the man who’s constantly on the job like my dad!
We used Bagster when we remodeled our kitchen. We couldn’t believe how much it held. Arranging for pick-up was very easy. Would definately recommend to others.
The Bagster Bag system seems like a great solution for waste from big projects.

I think its a great way to keep a construction site organized and debris will be easy to dispose of.
good idea to me as long as they are pretty vulnerable to tears and other destructive problems
trustjesus7771 at yahoo dot com
I think this is an awsome idea, it will easily fit in areas a dumpster wont. Also it doesnt look so ugly like a huge dumpster does.
texaswaitress (at) live (dot) com
I’m all about organization, this fits the bill. Grab the bag and I’m ready to start.
I think the Bagster Bag system is a genius idea – those of us who take a little (ha!) longer to work on projects don’t have to worry about how long we’re paying for an ugly dumpster.
I think the bag is a great idea. It’s much more easier than going to the dump, etc.
He doesn’t know it yet :-) but I have some major MAJOR home projects on the agenda for my husband to tackle during the summer and fall. The Bagster Bag System would be perfect for the cleanup after a total bathroom makeover and a deck that involves altering a whole wall to add glass doors, etc.

I like the idea. wish it were available in my area.
I think that it is a great idea for people who do not have access to a county/city dump in their area. It would be cheaper for people in these areas to use this service than to rent a dumpster. However, for those who DO have a dump accessible to them, I don’t think this is a very cost effective idea!
I LOVE the Bagster Bag system. I like how convenient the bag is. Instead of dropping the debris randomly on the ground, I could instead use the Bagster Bag to tidy up the work space. INCREDIBLE idea :) I’d buy one for my boyfriend’s father.♥♥.
This is fantastic! We just rented a big ol’ dumpster for a project that wasn’t really that big. It was expensive and unnecessary. That’s why the Bagster is great :)
Thanks!

I could use the gift card :-)
i really love the Bagster Bag system! What a great idea!

I thought it was a great system.
For my family it would have been great. I didn’t know about this. When my father passed away he left “stuff” that we didn’t know what to do with. This would have been a great help.
I think they are a great idea
I liked you on fb
great idea
I think it’s a great way to get rid of garbage when you’re doing home improvement.
That’s a handy system for those who don’t want to be left hauling the remnants of a project to the dump themselves or dealing with local garbage collectors.

This bag is great. Companies also talk about listening to their clients and thinking of them but normally it is not so. This is an example of creating something the normal consumer needs. Congrats.
Good idea. My boyfriend has been using these of late in his work.
He has been doing tear outs down on the gulf in MS where it had
flooded.
I love the Bagster Bag System! It’s easy to use and very convenient!
I love the idea, I think it is the perfect solution for a multitude of challenges when working on things such as house renovation. And big enough to hold a bathtub?? Woot! That made me laugh, but hey, when you’re in the middle of a project and you have something like the Bagster, you’re going to be a very happy person.
I think it is a great idea, buy don’t know if it would work here–have no idea if they would travel to my area to pick it up!
I love the Bagster Bag system and think it is JUST what my hubby needs!
I think it would be great to make space quickly
Sounds like a good way to get rid of construtions materials without having a huge dumpster taking up space in your driveway
Wow, this is a great way to deal with the countless odds and ends needing to be stored during a construction or renovation project.
great system–i just wish the pickup costs were cheaper
kolpin4680 at gmail dot com
The Bagster Bag system is a great idea. We did a few big projects on our previous house before we sold it and I know the Bagster would have helped us quite a bit.
I think this is a great idea and a way to keep everything nice and neat
this sounds pretty convenient and a great alternative to dumpsters..i wish we had had one when we tore out our basement
The Bagster seems like a really great way to consolidate the waste and debris that comes with construction!
I think it’s a great idea and I’m glad they have it at Home Depot!
i think it is ok,would have to go see it and learn more

I think its awesome! It beats renting a dumpster!

Sounds like a good idea – makes for a more efficient way of doing home renovations. Thanks!
They are a great idea for home projects!
I think it sounds like a great idea! I’ll have to mention it to my parents.
This would be a great money saver! I like that we could keep it as long as we needed to without incurring any charges… then call at our convenience when we’re ready to have the Bagster picked up for disposal! Great idea!
I am amazed at the bagster and how rugged it is. Such a great convenience for someone doing remodeling.

I think the system looks like a great idea!
I just saw this commercial for the first time yesterday. I think it’s a neat concept, very neat, however is it just picked up by local recyclers and would they charge you a bigger fee for picking up such a large amount?

I think the Bagster Bag System would be great. It would make ceaning up easier.
I like that you can keep it for as long as you need it which would be great for an on-going project.
Thanks for the contest.
I love the Bagster system for it’s convenience. The ability that you can take as long as you need to fill it and call for pickup when needed.
It sounds very useful.
