Each excess garbage bag cannot:

Weigh more than 20 kg (44 lbs).
-
Be larger than 66 cm (26 in) wide and 90 cm (35 in) high.

Residents should place excess garbage close to but not on top of their garbage bins, leaving at least 1 m (3 ft.) of clear space between the extra garbage item(s) and the bins.
