Rules for Official Garbage Bags

Some municipalities require specific trash bags. This guide explains how to find the right ones.

Trash bag rules depend on the municipality.

Some cities require official bags for burnable or non-burnable trash, while others allow ordinary clear or semi-clear bags.

Where to buy them

• Convenience stores
• Supermarkets
• Drugstores
• Sometimes city offices

If you are unsure, ask your building manager or a neighbor which bags your area uses. That is often the fastest answer.
