The Search for the Perfect Trash Collection Bag
As you know, we have been working on finding the perfect, durable, cost-efficient, trash collection bag for our valet trash customers. Halstead Corporation, the manufacturer of the DuraSack, has heard our plea for help and is on board to help us find a solution. We have tested one prototype and relayed feedback, and they are back to the drawing board to design a better bag.
In the meantime, we gave feedback that their current product, while not perfect, could work if it were a bit bigger. "We can do that easily" was their response and they are willing to manufacture their existing DuraSack product with an additional 12 inches added to the height of the bag so we would have a bag that measures 20" x 20" x 40" which is comparable to other competitive collection bags - but at a fraction of the price.
Of course, the million-dollar question that needs to be answered before they will make them is "Will customers buy these until the perfect bag is made?" So, I come to you, the customer, for the answer.
Would this "bandaid" be something you would buy? The price would be approximately $15 per bag, 10 bags to a case, shipping out of New Jersey (their shipping rates are pretty fantastic), and likely available at the end of September.
Let me know!!
