Responsibly Dispose of Pet Waste
While our compostable pet waste bags are BPI certified compostable, it does not mean that your municipality waste collection service will accept pet waste as part of their home compost waste collection or commercial composting facilities.
For responsible pet waste disposal in your area, please search where you live along with pet waste disposal and you should see whether or not pet waste can be collected or commercially composted in your area.
To help limit the amount of pet waste ending up in the landfill some other eco-friendly options are flushing the pet waste (never in any bag - it will clog!) down the toilet, using a designated pet waste disposal service (Google search where you live and see if there are services offered in your area). You can even create your own at home designated dog waste composter!
Our dog poop bags are designed to offer a more eco-friendly and plastic free alternative to conventional plastic poop bags so even if you dispose of your dog poop in a garbage can at home or while out and about you can rest easy knowing that the bag will fully break down in a matter of months at a landfill leaving zero waste behind.

FAQs
Monty’s Bags are made from cornstarch and plant-based materials (PLA + PBAT) — meaning they break down naturally in just 3–6 months once disposed of. Traditional plastic poop bags can take hundreds of years, if ever, to decompose. Choosing Monty’s helps reduce plastic waste, supports a cleaner planet, and gives your dog walk a more eco-friendly footprint.
Our bags are not the typical green compostable bags you see everywhere. Monty’s Bags feature a signature creamy yellow colour that’s completely custom to our brand — easy to spot in your bag dispenser, stylish, and never confused with cheap alternatives.
They're also strong, thick, leak-resistant, and larger than most bags at 9 x 13 inches, making them reliable for dogs of all sizes.
Monty’s Bags are crafted from bio-based materials including:
- Cornstarch
- PLA (Polylactic Acid)
- PBAT (a biodegradable bio-based polymer)
Together, they create a durable bag that’s gentle on the planet while still being strong enough for everyday use.
Our compostable dog poop bags fully break down in 3–6 months, depending on conditions. This is dramatically faster than plastic bags, which can linger in landfills for hundreds of years or may never fully degrade.
Yes! Our bags are designed with durability in mind. They’re thick, sturdy, and reliably leak-resistant, making them ideal for all breeds — from small pups to large dogs.
Each bag on our standard and Triples rolls measures 9 x 13 inches, giving you more room and easier tie-off than many standard-sized poop bags. Great for large dogs, messy pickups, or pet parents who appreciate extra space.
Absolutely. For multi-pooper households, dog walkers, or commercial use, we offer Triples Rolls (45 bags per roll) — fewer roll changes and better value. We also offer bulk order and wholesale pricing for dog walking companies, pet stores, groomers, and other pet-focused businesses.
Yes — Monty’s Bags offers wholesale options for but not limited to:
- Dog walkers
- Pet boutiques
- Groomers
- Boarding facilities
- Property management and strata
- Municipalities and dog parks
- Eco-focused and refill stores
- Commercial operations
We also support bulk procurement for condos, parks, dog stations, and businesses seeking sustainable waste solutions.
Our compostable bags are BPI Certified Compostable (Canada only) and meet OK Compost and TÜV Austria standards, ensuring they break down properly in composting environments.
Many municipalities in Canada (for example Calgary) accept certified compostable dog waste bags as part of their home collection services for compostable materials. Always check your local guidelines, but our bags are fully certified for compostability where accepted.
