Beginning July 1, 2021, the city of Denver, Colorado will impose a $0.10 fee on disposable plastic and paper bags. The fee is not included as a part of the taxable sales price and will be used to help educate customers through information programs and provide free reusable bags.

The bag fee was originally set to begin in 2020, but due to the pandemic was delayed until July 1, 2021. Further information can be found here.
