There is a four bag limit every other week per household for garbage collection on your regular collection day. Each additional garbage bag over the four-bag limit requires a bag tag.

Ordering bag tags

Bag tags cost $2.50 each and are sold in sheets of five. You can order bag tags online. Please allow for 7-10 business days to receive your tags in the mail.

You can also purchase bag tags in-person at:

• Whitby Central Library – 405 Dundas St. W.
• Town Hall – 575 Rossland Rd. R.

You must schedule an appointment at Town Hall before visiting.

Special Consideration Program

If you have a medical condition that causes you to generate a greater amount of waste, or have three children under the age of three in your household, you may be eligible for an annual allotment of garbage bag tags under the Special Consideration Program.

Please contact us for an accessible version of the Special Consideration Application form or call 905.668.3437 for more information.
