Hello from Rev-A-Shelf,

Thank you for your interest in our product. The 35 quart can is approximately 8.75 gallons, so any trash bag larger than 8.75 gallons will work with this unit.

Have a Great Day,

Katherine

Unfortunately the 8 gallon bags that you can buy at the grocery store do not fit. I even tried buying some 8 gallon bags from Amazon that have a drawstring so that it would fit over the rim. I just got off the phone with the manufacturer and they stated that the only bags that fit are the Simple Human 9 gallon trash bags which are 4 times the price of a grocery store 8 gallon bag.

seems to me like bad engineering!!

i have yet to find a garage bag that does not slid off, because it’s too big around the rim. Rev-a-shelf should work with a bag provider to get a better fitting bag. Had I known this would be so hard I would have not approved the Rev-a-shelf in my design.

The only bag that really works is the simply human size J. It makes a tight fit at the top but is about 6 inches too long. When the bag is full in the can and you remove it, you have enough space to add lots more garbage. i tend to let it stand to the side and continue adding more garbage until full. It’s a royal pain and the garbage bags are expensive, but they dont rip. They are the best bags on the market.
