"These videos claim that the seam of a new garbage bag, fresh out of the box, is placed on the outside for a reason. The idea is that instead of pulling out the bag, unfolding it, and shaking it so it expands to fit your garbage can, all you need to do is fit it over the top of your can like a hat."
"Still, there is little evidence to support the claim that we have been using our garbage bags incorrectly. The official Hefty X account weighed in on the issue, saying, "Can confirm: there's no wrong way to line a trash bin." So if you can get your bag in a trash can, then you're doing it right as far as this company is concerned."
Viral social media videos show turning new garbage bags inside out so the seam sits outside, allowing a bag to be fitted over a can like a hat instead of unfolding and shaking it. The inside-out method often makes getting a bag into a trash can easier. Hefty stated there is no wrong way to line a trash bin. Glad advised that inside-out placement is not correct for bags with scents or additives, because those are added to the inside; reversing the bag can expose or negate those features. Functionally, either placement works if the bag fits the can.
