Garbage Bag Tags

Where Do I Purchase More Tags?

Bag tags can be picked up or purchased from the following locations:

• Port Stanley Arena (320 Carlow Road, Port Stanley)
• Belmont Arena (14020 Belmont Road, Belmont)
• Central Elgin Municipal Office (450 Sunset Drive, St. Thomas) 

You can buy more tags for $1.50 each. Once we switch to the cart program, tags will be $5 each.

Some businesses find it more economical to purchase dumpster service for large quantities of garbage. Check the Yellow Pages for options.

The number of allowable bags will depend on your property. For 2021:

• Residential properties receive 42 tags/year 
• Commercial properties receive 91 tags/year
• Agricultural properties with a valid registration number receive an additional 19 tags/year

How Much Do Bag Tags Cost?

Central Elgin gave the following number of bag tags out to residents, for free, at the beginning of the year:

• Residential properties receive 42 tags/year 
• Commercial properties receive 91 tags/year
• Agricultural properties with a valid registration number receive an additional 19 tags/year

If you require more yellow bag tags (valid until June 1, 2021) they will cost $1.50 each.

Once we switch to the new cart program on June 1, the new bag tags (pink) will cost $5 each.
