Indian River County expects trash, recycling, and yard-waste carts stored out of public view between pickups and brought in the same day after collection. Set carts out by 6 a.m. on your day. HOAs and barrier-island communities are stricter.
The county treats your Waste Management carts as part of a property's street appearance. Between collection days, the gray, blue, and yard-waste carts should be kept out of public view - beside the house, behind a fence, or in the garage - not parked at the curb or in the front yard all week. Set carts out by 6 a.m. on your scheduled day, or the evening before, lids closed and not overflowing, then bring them back in the same day. Screening matters most in the deed-restricted subdivisions, CDDs, and barrier-island communities around Vero Beach and Sebastian, where covenants add their own bin-storage rules on top of county code.
Carts stored in public view or left at the curb overnight can draw a code-enforcement notice, then fines that escalate on repeat offenses. HOAs levy separate fines under their covenants.
