Oh Crap Compostable Dog Poop Bags

When stored in cool, dry conditions away from direct light the bags will last for 12 months from the date of purchase. We’ve been obsessed with dog poop bags since 2014, and have customers all over the country, so have a lot of experience with compostable dog poop bags in Aussie weather conditions. Customers have reported that they easily last the 12 months advertised and even longer in some of our less humid states around the country. 

Then, when you have pulled one out to do the downward-dog to pick up your furry friends business the are designed to start degrading in composting conditions. Oh Crap Dog Poop Bags are certified AS 5810 & AS 4736 compostable, which means they meet strict Australian standards for composting. In a commercial composting facility, 90% of the bag will break down within 12 weeks, and it will be completely biodegraded within 6 months. In a home composting environment, it may take a bit longer, but rest assured, these bags will return to the earth much faster than traditional plastic bags, leaving no harmful residues behind. 

Yes, Oh Crap Dog Poop Bags are certified AS 5810 for home composting. This means they're safe to add to your backyard compost bin. However, we do not recommend composting pet waste in compost intended for your fruit and viggies. Instead it’s great for your ornamental flowers and tree’s.

Each roll of Oh Crap Dog Poop Bags contains 15 bags. We offer various pack sizes to suit different needs, from our 1-month pack (3 rolls, 45 bags) right up to our mega poop pack (100 rolls, 1500 bags). This way, you can choose the perfect amount for you and your furry friend, ensuring you're always prepared for your walks without unnecessary waste.

Absolutely! We've designed our rolls to be universally compatible. Oh Crap Dog Poop Bags fit not only our own Oh Crap dog poop bag holder but also all standard holders. We believe in making eco-friendly choices convenient, so you can easily switch to our compostable bags without having to change your existing dispenser.

Oh Crap Dog Poop Bags stand out in several ways:

1. They're truly compostable, not just biodegradable. Many eco-friendly options are actually plastic bags that break down into harmful microplastics.
2. They're 3x thicker than average poop bags, ensuring a leak-proof, odor-containing experience.
3. They're certified to Australian composting standards, both for home and commercial composting. And our Aussie government standards far exceed the standards set in the US and Europe.
4. We've perfected every detail, from the smooth separation between bags to the recyclable cardboard core.
5. They're part of the mission to change the world one poop at a time, having already saved millions of plastic bags from landfill.

Definitely! Our standard dog poop bags measure 23cm by 33cm, making them one of the largest available in Australia. This generous size, combined with the fact they are 3x thicker than average poop bags means they're more than capable of handling waste from larger breeds. No matter the size of your furry friend, you can trust Oh Crap bags to do the job without any "oh crap" moments!

To keep your Oh Crap Dog Poop Bags in top condition, store them in a cool, dry place. When stored properly, they have a shelf life of at least 12 months. If your bags happen to get wet during a rainy walk, don't worry! You have about 30 days to use up the rest of that roll. Remember, while our bags are quick to decompose in composting conditions, they're designed to be durable for everyday use when stored correctly.

Absolutely! While we call ourselves "crapologists" and focus on dog waste, our #OhCrapFamily has found numerous uses for our bags. They're great for cat litter, bird droppings, rabbit pellets, or even as a portable rubbish bin for humans at the beach. The sturdy, leak-proof design makes them versatile for various types of waste. Just remember, whatever you're picking up, you're making an eco-friendly choice with Oh Crap bags!
