Our Mission At Kwik BagIt we are committed to reducing the amount of single-use plastic bags that are plugging up our landfills and polluting our waterways. These bags are terrible for the environment and effect the health of humans, fish and wildlife. It takes over 100 years for a plastic bag to decompose and when they finally do, they breakdown into tiny particles that are eaten by plankton, which feed the fish and wildlife and eventually the plastic gets into our bodies. It's not a surprise that colon cancer rates are on a rise. The average household (with 4 people) will use 60 single - use plastic bags per year, for collecting their cans and bottles destined for the recycling depots. That's a cost of over $ 60.00 per year, per family. With inflation on the rise - it will only cost more next year. Our bags will hold the equivalent of 3 large size plastic bags, and since they hold so much you will be making less frequent trips to the depots, saving you even more and reducing your carbon footprint.
