Measuring a Box
Measure the width, depth and
height of the box to be lined.
The depth is the shortest
side.
Add 1” to the width and 1” to
the depth of the box to
determine the width and
depth of the bag.
For the length of the bag add
the depth + height + 7 inches.

If you plan to tie off the bag
add 10” to 12” to the length.
Example: The box is 18”
(width) x 14” (depth) x 16”
(height).
The liner would be 19 (width)
x 15 (depth) x 37 (length).
