Garbage - Curb It St. John's

Garbage

Clear Garbage Bags

The City of St. John’s has updated its Sanitation Regulations to reflect modern practices of waste collection, including curbside recycling and other ways to divert waste from the landfill.

Garbage put at the curb for collection must be in clear, colourless bags – with the exception of one ‘privacy’ bag per week that can be in an opaque, non-transparent (ie. black, white) bag.

Waste Stickers
