<li><strong>Imprinted Trash Bags:</strong> Residents purchase colored plastic bags imprinted with the name or seal of the municipality. The price of each bag should cover both the cost of the bag itself and the cost for disposal. Waste haulers are instructed to pick up only the specially marked trash bags.</li>
3939
<li><strong>Stickers or Tags: </strong>Residents purchase specially marked labels or tags and affix them to their own trash bags or barrels. Different sticker colors may indicate different volumes of waste being disposed. Note: this is often less desirable as it is more difficult to ensure consistency in the size of the bags being used. Imprinted trash bags guarantee a uniform size.</li>

<li><strong>Hybrid Program: </strong>In this type of PAYT program, one container (not to exceed 35 gallons) is collected at the curb as part of a municipality's basic level service. Trash in excess of 35 gallons must be placed in PAYT overflow bags, tags, or stickers that residents purchase.</li>

<li><strong>Full Program: </strong>As opposed to the Hybrid Program, households pay for each unit they dispose of.</li>

<li><strong>35-gallon Trash Cart or Barrel: </strong>More municipalities in Massachusetts are implementing programs with uniform 35-gallon wheeled trash carts, as they are aesthetically pleasing and supported by most waste haulers. This qualifies as a PAYT program for MassDEP grant purposes.</li>
4341
<li><strong>Imprinted Trash Bags in Carts: </strong>Some municipalities in Massachusetts are faced with having already committed to carts larger than 35 gallons but still want to adopt a PAYT model that addresses waste reduction. This can be accomplished by implementing the imprinted bag program mentioned above but requiring that they be placed inside carts.</li>
