Are there any plastic bags (maybe some bin bag types or similar?) that

Depends on the type of "junk" - the "vacuum" bags are good for squashable things like bedding.


Be careful with some of these. After a while they leak, and as the air
re-enters the contents expand again.


A vacuum is a hard thing to maintain, and a thin plastic bag with a zip top not much of a barrier. If you need the clothes to stay compressed, vacuum them down then bind them with a few wraps of tape. You don't need the vacuum any more then.
