Bring your own bag

At TELUS, we're committed to environmental sustainability and reducing our footprint for a healthier planet. We encourage you to join us by bringing your own bag when visiting our stores.

Why we’re charging for bags

We're updating our approach to align with new provincial regulations and municipal bylaws. We've introduced charges for reusable bags to comply with these regulations and promote sustainability.

Buy a bag, help grow the future

When you purchase a reusable bag at TELUS stores, the proceeds will go towards tree replanting efforts. We've planted over 11 million trees to help combat climate change and protect biodiversity. Join us in restoring nature and supporting communities worldwide.
