The Town of Aurora has implemented a new Bag Tag program. Aurora residents can place up to three-bags or containers out for pickup every other week on their regularly scheduled collection days and any additional waste will require a bag tag.
Bulky items such as furniture, mattresses, box springs, plastic lawn furniture, toilets (separated) and carpeting do not require a tag. (Up to 5 items maximum).
Bag Tags can be purchased for $5 each tax included and are sold at:
- Aurora Town Hall (100 John West Way)
- Aurora Family Leisure Complex (135 Industrial Pkwy N)
- Stronach Aurora Recreation Complex (1400 Wellington St E)
All garbage should be placed in a Town approved container or a plastic bag. Waste beyond the three-bag limit will require a bag tag sticker to be placed around the neck of the bag or it will not be picked up. Residents can put up to a maximum of six bags/bins of garbage out, three free and three paid.
Bags will not be collected beyond the three (3) bag limit without a bag tag. Additional waste beyond the limit will have a non-compliant sticker placed on it and will be left behind.
We encourage residents to use the Recycle Coach app that can be downloaded to any iOS or Android device. The app provides pickup schedules, useful information on waste and a search function that tells you where a waste item belongs.
