 Remember to bring your own bag when you shop! Starting July 1, Denver’s Bring Your Own Bag program will require all retail stores to charge 10 cents for each disposable carryout bag provided at checkout. The mandatory fee will apply to paper, plastic, and even compostable bags to encourage shoppers to use reusable bags and help reduce the number of disposable bags that are used, littered, and landfilled.
