Clear Garbage Bag Program

The City of Mount Pearl requires all residents to use clear garbage bags for household garbage. This mandatory program allows the city to ensure that residents recycle and dispose of household hazardous waste properly. Clear garbage bags have a positive impact on the environment by keeping unnecessary waste out of the landfill. For more information, please view the Clear Garbage Bag Frequently Asked Questions.
