The large brown paper bags are good for that and they are available at markets and Hardware stores, they hold a lot, they are strong and they are biodegradable. The intent is to be able to shred the paper and the contents and recycle, a great idea if they do it. They pick it up at the curb, we fold the top down and tape with masking tape, works great. bbbbbb
