Having a lot of stored Junk, we have the problem of bringing it down a

Supermarket plastic carrier bags were good for storage and very handy to
carry up and down the ladder, but i think most are now probably
'degradable' and will soon fall apart into a thousand pieces.
Are there any plastic bags (maybe some bin bag types or similar?) that
will not be degradable, that any one knows of ?


AFAIK, only Tesco were stupid enough to introduce disintegrating bags,
which they later replaced with "normal" "single use" bags prior to the
clampdown.

I guess the supermarket "Bag for life" types are going to be
reasonably long-lived, though they aren't free.

They are around here as people throw away their rubbish in them: I
retrieve them if they are clean.


You can then "accidentally" rip them and swap them for clean ones when
you visit the respective establishment, with the side effect of the bag
exiting the landfill dead end and (theoretically) entering the recycling
chain.
