Garbage
One (1) untagged CLEAR bag or container of garbage will be collected per week. Any garbage that exceeds the limit must have a bag tag attached.
You are allowed 1 CLEAR bag or container of garbage per week. The maximum weight for clear garbage bags/containers is 44 pounds. The maximum size of garbage containers should not exceed 125 liters or 33 gallons. Bag tags are required for any bag/container of garbage that exceeds your weekly garbage limit.
Please attach the tag to the neck of your garbage bag or place the tag on the top of the contents in your container so that it is clearly visible. All tagged garbage MUST follow garbage set-out rules (ex. clear bag, maximum weight of 44lbs, etc.).
Bag tags can be purchased online in blocks of 10. The cost for each block of 10 bag tags is $20.00, plus $2.00 for shipping and handling. Please click here to purchase bag tags online. Once your purchase is complete, please allow 7-10 business days to receive your bag tags.
Single bag tags can be purchased in person at participating vendors. One bag tag costs $2.00. Please see below to find a vendor in your area.
In certain circumstances, the County of Dufferin will consider making an exemption for additional bags of garbage. Click here to see if you qualify.
