A method of bagging refuse in a refuse compactor wherein the drawer of the compactor is provided with an upwardly opening bag having installed therein a plurality of sets of stacked paper sheets in lining relationship to the bag with an upper portion of the sheets turned over the turned-over top portion of the bag. The upper portion of the sheets and the top portion of the bag are secured to the upper edge portion of the drawer during the compacting operation. Upon completion of the compacting operation, the top portion of the bag is gathered with the refuse and lining sheets disposed fully within the bag so as to permit disposal of the compacted refuse in closed, bagged form.
