Description
HoldOn was born from the simple idea that there had to be a better way to go about our daily chores—and it can start with a better bag. HoldOn bags are super strong, durable trash bags made with compostable materials and plant-based renewables like cornstarch. The result? A heavy-duty bag that is made without traditional plastic and is free from harmful toxins like BPA and PFOA. When composted, the bags break down cleanly without microplastics or toxic residue in weeks.
What's more is we always pack in recyclable, 100% FSC-certified packaging—never plastic. Packaging switched from plastic to paper, aluminum, steel, or glass.
Product contains compostable elements and is available in two convenient sizes that are strong for you and gentle on the planet.

Guilt free bags

I started to realize how funny it was wrapping my recyclables in an unrecyclable trash bag... ie basically throwing trash in the recycling. Even as a 'regular' trash trash bag, I feel better using these 'cause there's already more than enough waste in the world so something I use multiple times a week might as well be earth-friendly.
Split seams, easily punctured

Bags rip easily. They rip at the seam, when trying to pull them over the lip of my trash can. They rip easily if things are “too pointy” inside. I’ve purchased these bags (and the smaller, 4oz ones) for over a year. I can’t keep doing it though. I’m gonna have to let this size bag go and stick to the mini bags for my bathroom trash cans. The constant double bagging and/or having my bag hanging on to the can by 2 sides and falling in every time something is placed in it is super annoying. I’m done with them.

Tie strings snap easily. Bags tear easily. Multiple experiences of needing to clean the floor or inside of trash can due to leakage or breakage. Ended up double bagging which helped, but didn’t solve, the problem.
Not durable for kitchen use

Ties break while tying. Not durable enough for kitchen use. Bags break open while removing from bin & are not stretchable enough to fit around standard tall kitchen trash bin. The final straw to make me write a review is how often the bags tear open - had to double bag to take outside wasting bags. Will not repurchase - not strong enough for heavy duty kitchen needs.
Finally a Bag that will Hold On to Contents

I tried compostable bags two years ago and they were terrible—they were flimsy and fell apart with trash in them. I stopped using them, but decided to give them another shot with Hold On bags from Target. What a difference! They didn't break down even with wet trash, and the handles stayed intact. I'm really impressed with this product!

Ties much too often detach at seam with minimum pressure. Switching to another brand!

These bags are much stronger than I expected. I was worried about bags splitting or leaking but they are very sturdy.

I had high hopes for these but I have had to double bag several times due to ripping of the bags and holes forming. I’m not sure if it because of moisture or what. I’ve been very careful with them so I know I’m not over filling them. Just not worth the extra money, effort and forethought.
Bags Rip and Deteriorate Too Easily

I rarely write reviews, but these bags are awful! If you throw away anything wet they deteriorate and fall apart. I had two separate incidents where the bags ripped and the trash ended up all over my kitchen. Then when I pulled out a second bag to use they ripped straight out of the box. I love compostable bags, but for me, these ones aren’t it.
Perfect for daily trash

Strong 13 gallon bag. We use these in our kitchen garbage can and typically use one to two per day. We don't over fill it, so we never had issues with it breaking. I do think they are less stretchy than the regular plastic ones, but it gives us some peace of mind knowing these bags are compostable. Hopefully as more of us use them, the price will come down for everyone to be able to use them.

I love the idea of these as I try to be as environmentally conscience as I can but they do start to fall apart when wet stuff gets put in them. It's a bummer because I loathe plastic and I wanted these to work. I'm double bagging what is left of the box because I don't want to waste them. Not sure where I go from here.

They desintegrate as soon as they get wet! Love the idea but seems like they aren’t strong enough to prevent giant trash spills in the worst places.
Still worth it for mother earth!

Great bags, and I truly love the effort and the reduction in our carbon footprint. The bags are thin and tear easily. We have to double bag often.

Every time we put this on our Rubbermaid 23gal trash, the bags rip. They are too narrow to sit the mouth of the trash, and tear too easily. I'm going back to Grove.

The bags don't fit most garbage cans. If you try to stretch it just a little they rip. The Matter compostable bags from Target are hella better. More expensive and I see why now.

I am not sure why these get such great reviews. I am using the 13 gallon kitchen trash bags and using for my organics. One broke all over my kitchen floor. Every one has leaked. This causes me to have to rinse out my plastic trash bin as well as my organics cart EVERY week due to smell. This will not work in the Winter when water outside is turned off. Will have to look for an alternative.

First time buyer who is enciromentally conscious. 1st bag tore open with trash falling all over (wasn't full & never compressed). 2nd bag didn't tear, but I took care of what got thrown in. 3rd bag tore open, same story as 1st bag. Twice cleaning trash can & floor. Stopped using & returning the 3 boxes purchased.
