Red Bank, NJ Property Maintenance: Trash Bin Storage (2026)

Monmouth County trash bin regulation is handled by each of the 53 municipalities under property maintenance codes (typically based on IPMC adopted via N.J.A.C. 5:28). Typical rules across Monmouth: Middletown Code §200-8 requires bins stored out of street view between collections, with curbside placement no earlier than 6 PM day before and retrieved by 8 PM day of collection; Long Branch Code §274-21 requires screened storage and 24-hour curbside placement window; Asbury Park Code §300-25 requires bins removed from sidewalk within 12 hours of collection; Belmar Code §30-48 requires specific bin types (wheeled cans with secure lids) and screened storage in rental properties; Howell Code §172-35 requires bear-resistant containers in wooded areas with April-November seasonal deployment; Freehold Township Code §265-18 requires enclosure within 12 hours of collection. Collection schedules: Middletown, Holmdel, Marlboro, Manalapan use contracted haulers (Waste Management, Republic); Long Branch, Asbury Park, Red Bank, Freehold Borough use municipal sanitation crews. Recycling: NJ Mandatory Recycling Act (N.J.S.A. 13:1E-99.11a) requires recycling in all Monmouth towns; Monmouth County Reclamation Center (Tinton Falls) handles county-wide recycling. Bulk pickup requires advance scheduling in most towns; illegal dumping at curb (appliances, mattresses, construction debris without scheduled pickup) triggers separate illegal dumping fines under N.J.S.A. 13:1E-9.3. HOA communities (Leisure Village, Covered Bridge, Greenbriar) often have stricter storage rules including specific locations, times, and container types. Commercial dumpsters separately regulated, typically requiring enclosures under IBC and local zoning.
