Hernando County expects the blue cart stored out of street view between pickups and set curbside no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before, lid closed. Bins left out draw property-maintenance enforcement; HOAs are stricter.
County property-maintenance rules treat the blue Coastal Waste cart as part of a property's street appearance. Between collection days, the cart should be stored out of public view - behind a fence, beside the house, or in the garage - not parked at the curb or in the front yard all week. Set it out no earlier than 6 p.m. the evening before your pickup, lid closed and not overflowing, then bring it back by the end of collection day. Screening matters most in the deed-restricted Spring Hill subdivisions, where HOA covenants add their own bin-storage rules on top of county code.
Carts stored in view or left at the curb between pickups draw a warning, then code-compliance fines that escalate on repeat offenses. HOAs levy separate fines under their covenants.
