Why do they need to mail tags? Can't we get 2 free cans a week and if you have more than you need to buy tags for those. That would save alot of money.

re: TRASH TAGS

I see your point, however, many households like my own do our best to recycle and ''bank'' our tags for those times when we have an unusually large quantity of trash, like around holidays and birthdays when we have guests over. The point of the trash tag program is that everyone has the opportunity to dispose of the same amount of trash without it costing additional money. It wouldn't exactly be fair if my house only put out one can of trash per week all year and then had to fork out an extra buck or two on a couple of weeks when we had three cans.
