Now jobs like that I'm sure I'd be using TB's. I don't believe there are any buildings like that in this area.

How cheap are you to not spend $7 on some trash bags?

:evilgrin

It's not a matter of being cheap, when I did dealer work, our shop was FAR away from many of them. The jerkoffs call you early in the morning saying that they have to have this car done by xxxx. I'm not going to the damn store to grab a freaking trash bag. Plus, a penny saved is a penny earned.

I have to admit I fall into this line of thinking...I buy big black garbage bags (industrial size) that cost about 30 cents each.. 1 bag would fit the scraps of a $1000.00 tint job easily + might give a better impression on the job site to not look like you forgot a garbage bag :thumb

Believe it or not customers are impressed with it. I mean after the first window I'll lay that backing sheet on the floor beside me like a drop cloth (and no thats not what I use for a drop cloth). But then I just throw the trash on that. When I'm done in that area I just roll it like a Burrito, tie it up, takes about 30 sec. Sure I know tossin in a bag takes about 2 sec. But hey, I can spare an extra 28 sec. 4 or 5 times a day.

Everybody probably already does this but I haven't seen it on here yet. But when I do res. or comm. jobs I just wrap all my trash in the backing sheets, usually doing it room by room. Each time throwing the bundle I just did into the next batch. But each time after I've wrapped up a bundle I tie it with a piece of excess trim from the film. I find its a lot easier to haul around. Its kind of funny 'cause many times after cust. see me do it they say something like "Boy you really got that down to a science don't you". Now the only PITA is when you go do a small pane job and have no trash bags. So after doing that a couple of times I've packed 2 or 3 in my Truck just in case.

we used to do that, we used to call 'em deathpods.....little alien cocoons....
