B & G Plastic Bags Corporation

Packaging supply stores keep small manufacturers and neighborhood shops running. B & G Plastic Bags Corporation sits on 43rd Street in Astoria, where the sidewalks hum with delivery vans and corner grocers restocking shelves. Businesses around 18-34 43rd St rely on bulk rolls of polyethylene, zip-lock liners, and custom-printed carry-out bags to keep their operations tidy and branded. The area’s mix of old-school butchers and artisanal bakeries means demand stays steady for everything from clear garment covers to heavy-duty contractor bags. A quick call ahead can save a trip—(718) 204-6700 connects you to the counter where someone can confirm what’s in stock before you arrive.

Astoria’s industrial pockets still feel like the city’s working backbone, and a stop at B & G fits right into that rhythm. Whether you’re outfitting a food cart or prepping for a sidewalk sale, the basics are covered without fuss. Directions are straightforward: plug the address into your map here and follow the signs past the auto-body shops. If you forget the number, just ask the deli on the corner—they’ve got it on speed dial.
