Lodi requires residential garbage carts to be stored on the side of the home, behind the side-yard fence, and out of public view between collection days. Carts may be placed at the curb only on or near the scheduled pickup day.
Lodi contracts with Waste Management for residential refuse, recycling, and green-waste service. Carts (35-, 64-, or 96-gallon sizes) are provided by WM. Per Lodi's published common-violations guidance, carts must be stored on the side of the home behind the side yard fence and out of public view, and placed at the curb on or just before collection day. Containers should be on a paved or hard, level surface for hauler access. Leaving carts at the curb between pickups, or storing them in front-yard view, is a property-maintenance violation enforced by Community Improvement. Bulky-item pickups are handled by appointment through Waste Management.
Improper storage of trash carts is a code violation under Lodi's property-maintenance standards, enforced by Community Improvement at 310 W. Elm Street with administrative citations starting at $100.
