DeKalb Sanitation requires rollcarts at the curb with lids closed, 3 feet from obstructions, placed no earlier than the evening before and retrieved within 24 hours of pickup.
DeKalb County Sanitation rules require 95-gallon rollcarts placed at the curb with the arrows/handles facing the house and the lid fully closed. Carts must be spaced at least 3 feet from mailboxes, utility poles, parked cars, and each other to allow automated arm pickup. Carts may be set out no earlier than the evening before and must be retrieved by the end of the day after collection. Storing carts in public view between pickups can trigger a property-maintenance citation. Carts that are overfilled (lid propped open), contain hot ashes, or exceed weight limits will not be serviced.
Cart left at curb past allowed period: warning, then $25 to $100 per occurrence. Overfilled or improperly placed carts: skipped with explanatory tag.
