MALDEN, MA — Trash tags are now available for purchase online at cityofmalden.org/trashtag or at the Treasurer's Office at City Hall, 215 Pleasant Street. The tags allow residents to pay an annual fee to place any bagged household trash inside black city-issued trash carts. The sticker should be placed on the front of the cart, just above the cart serial number. Tags cost $75 a year and are suited to residents who regularly produce enough trash to fill their black cart weekly. Residents also have the option to keep using the blue Pay-As-You-Throw bags if they produce less waste than a full cart per week or have an overflow of trash. The city issued its own trash and recycling bins to households this spring in an effort to curb errant trash on its streets and offer residents flexibility through the Pay-As-You-Throw program.
