If you have a specific question please email us at orders@bagwasher.com

Is the BagWasher recyclable?

The BagWasher itself is made from 100% recycled plastic and will be 100% recyclable after its long and effective life cycle. The BagWasher will last for thousands of wash cycles. The color of the BagWasher is so that it is even more desirable for recycling companies.
Does the BagWasher collapse for storing?

The BagWasher does collapse for easy storage, while still ensuring that the entire bag is washed and dried as efficiently as possible. Reusing zip-top bags by washing them in the dishwasher helps reduce the amount of plastic waste going into your trash can and lowers waste going to the landfill. Washing zip-top plastic bags in the dishwasher effectively cleans the bags.
Does the BagWasher fit a silicone-style bag?

Yes, the silicone bags do fit BagWasher. In the future, we will have more BagWasher sizes available. While silicone bags are a wonderful option for food storage millions of Americans still use the zip-top style plastic bags for freezing foods and are still considered the easiest least expensive go-to option for food storage. Americans are so accustomed to grabbing a box of zip-top bags at the store that it’s almost second nature. Recycling those zip-top bags usually requires a separate company or drop-off place to recycle that type of plastic film bag. Wash, reuse wash, and reuse, again and again. Reduce plastic waste one bag at a time.
Is the BagWasher a US made product?

Yes. The BagWasher is designed, manufactured, and shipped from Colorado. It will be produced through injection molding by V&S Molding in Longmont, CO. All packaging and components are intended to be handled and fulfilled by U.S. based partners, and all parts of the BagWasher, including packaging, are recyclable.
How much space does it take up in the dishwasher?

The Gallon BagWasher is 8.5" long x 5" deep, so if you have two plates to put in your dishwasher, that is the space that a Gallon BagWasher consumes
The Quart BagWasher measures 6" long x 3.5 wide which will basically consume what a cereal bowl would consume.
What types of bags work with BagWasher?

BagWasher is designed to work with standard thin plastic, press-to-seal food storage bags (commonly known as Ziploc®-style bags), including standard quart and gallon sizes. BagWasher is also terrific to use with silicone bags, and you may find that silicone bags fit interchangeably with both quart and gallon sizes.
