        How Many Tags Do I Use?       

One, two, or three. How many? The question most asked by our customers is “How many tags do I put on my garbage? "

To answer this we have placed a handy reference chart below.

Please place tags in plain sight around the neck of each bag, or around the handle of each can.

        Where do I buy Tags?              

Tags are still a $ 1.25 per tag, and can be bought in Sheets of Ten at the Community Convenience Center, 

        The Following Guidelines Should Be Followed To Insure Dependable Service
