Pearl City residents must use city automated carts or compliant 10-35 gallon private containers, placed curbside within the allowed window and removed promptly, under ROH Section 42-1.4.
Section 42-1.4 governs refuse container specifications and placement. Private containers must hold between 10 and 35 gallons, weigh 25 pounds empty or less, and no more than 75 pounds filled, with a tight-fitting lid. Pearl City is served by the city automated cart program, and automated-arm access requires carts with handles facing the residence and clearance from parked vehicles, mailboxes, and landscaping. Carts may be placed curbside no earlier than the evening before the scheduled collection day and must be retrieved by end of that day. Non-compliant containers or overflowing bags alongside carts will not be collected.
Leaving carts at the curb for multiple days, overloading above 75 pounds, or setting bags outside the cart violates Section 42-1.4 and can result in skipped pickup and citation.
