If you're feeling totally frustrated because no matter how often you switch can liner brands or buy in bulk, you still end up with overflowing cans, ripped bags, and way too much money going to waste, then you are not alone!

If you’ve tried doubling up bags or just grabbing the closest liner, only to watch leaks and messes keep happening, you are not alone!

Greg Bizjak has a real knack for turning something as simple as a trash liner into an innovative, cost-saving solution.

With close to twenty years in the field, Greg’s made a name for himself by digging into the details that most people overlook—like why liner size and thickness really matter when you’re managing a facility.

He’s worked with schools, hotels, restaurants, and more, helping them identify where they’re overspending and how to improve their waste systems.

Greg’s not just about numbers, though; he brings a friendly, down-to-earth approach to every problem, making it easy for teams to ask questions and learn what actually works.

For Greg, it’s all about making waste management simpler, smarter, and much more efficient for everyone involved.
