Customer Questions and Answers for Trash Compactor Bags by Ge

The Trash Compactor Bags are OEM parts for GE trash compactors, designed to withstand the considerable force applied during the compaction process. These specially designed bags are made from durable materials capable of containing compacted waste without tearing or leaking. 15 bags are included per package. The bags measure about 27 inches X 32 inches x 3.0 millimeters thick.

Causes for replacing the compactor bags include normal use leading to them filling up, tears or punctures from sharp objects, or general wear and tear.

Symptoms of using a bad or incompatible trash compactor bag include:

• Bags tearing during compaction, leading to messes and odors within the compactor.
• Difficulty fitting the bag into the compactor unit, which can reduce efficiency and effectiveness.
• Leaks or spills from bags not specifically designed to handle the compaction process.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
