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.

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.
