A trash liner in combination with a trash container, and a method of using them to dispose of waste material. The trash liner is a bag having an opening and a body without perforations, with the opening of the bag having an edge within which is a tubular channel, and a flexible tying member passing through the tubular channel. Opposite ends of the tying member extend from openings in the tubular channel. The trash liner may be fastened on a trash container by inserting the body of the bag into the trash container, placing the edge of the opening of the bag over the rim of the trash container, and tying the opposite ends of the tying member together. Trash placed within the trash container may be safely removed by untying the ends of the tying member, removing the edge of the opening of the bag from the rim of the trash container, closing the opening of the bag, and again tying the ends of the tying member to secure closure of the bag. In the preferred embodiment, there is a notch in the edge of the opening of the bag, between two openings of the tubular channel, whereby air may be vented when the bag is placed inside the trash container.
