The twisted paper handles are what you notice first on our extra large paper bags: thick, rolled paper handles made for carrying a full load out of your store. At 18x7x18.75, these aren't gift-bag sized. They're the bag you reach for when a customer buys three things that won't fit anywhere smaller.
The 7-inch gusset is the part people underestimate. That wide base lets the bag stand on its own while you pack it, and it swallows boxed goods, folded apparel, or a couple of bulky items without forcing you to cram.
Height matters here too. At nearly 19 inches tall, you can drop in something long or stack a few items and still fold the top over. A shorter bag makes everything look crammed. These don't.
Twisted handles are comfortable to carry and easy to grip, which counts when the bag is full. A handle that digs into a customer's hand is the last impression you want to leave.
You get three finishes, and the one you pick says something about your shop.
Brown kraft is the workhorse. It reads natural, it's easy to stamp or sticker with your logo, and it suits anything from a garden center to a bookstore. White runs cleaner and brighter, which works well if your branding leans minimal or you want packaging that photographs nicely. Black is the dressed-up option, the one boutiques and higher-end retailers grab because a dark bag makes whatever's inside feel like a purchase worth bragging about.
All three share the same 18x7x18.75 size and the same twisted paper handles. The only real decision is which color matches how you want customers to feel walking out the door.
Apparel shops use them constantly. Folded clothing adds up fast and a small bag just can't hold a full outfit. Gift stores love them for multi-item purchases around the holidays. Bookshops, home goods stores, plant nurseries, and anyone selling bulky or boxed products all end up needing a bag this size on hand.
Event planners and pop-up vendors buy them for swag and welcome bags. And plenty of cafes and delis keep a few in reserve for the big catering pickup that won't fit in a standard takeout bag.
If your average sale is more than one item, extra large paper bags save you from double-bagging or apologizing for packaging that's clearly too small.
Start by measuring your bulkiest regular seller: width, depth, and height. Give yourself a little room on top so the bag closes without straining. A bag that's packed to the brim looks cheaper than it is.
If some of your sales are food or smaller takeout orders, don't force everything into one size. Pair these larger bags with our Paper Takeout Bags for meals and lighter orders, and browse the full Paper Shopping Bags selection to round out your counter.
Stock one color in this large size and keep a food-friendly takeout bag alongside it. That combo covers most of what walks out of a retail or food shop.
These two aren't competing; they just do different jobs.
Our paper takeout bags come in brown 10x6.75x12 and a white version with handles, plus 12 LB SOS takeout bags with no handles for grab-and-go food service. Those are built for meals, snacks, and single-item orders.
The extra large paper bags are for retail hauls and multi-item buys. If you're bagging a full outfit, a stack of books, or a boxed gift set, the takeout size just won't cut it. Buy the large bags for shopping, the takeout bags for food, and you won't find yourself jamming the wrong product into the wrong bag during a busy stretch.
How big are these extra large paper bags?
They measure 18x7x18.75 inches with twisted paper handles. The 7-inch gusset gives you a wide, flat base that stands on its own and holds bulky or boxed items without squeezing.
What colors do the extra large paper bags come in?
Three options: brown kraft, white, and black. All share the same size and twisted-handle build, so the only difference is the look you want your branding to carry.
Who should buy extra large paper bags?
Apparel shops, gift stores, bookshops, home goods retailers, plant nurseries, and event vendors all lean on this size for multi-item sales. If your average purchase is more than one thing, these keep you from double-bagging.
Is shipping included?
