In Fayetteville, set carts within one foot of the curb, no earlier than the day before collection. If you set out more than one cart, keep at least four feet of spacing between carts and objects so the automated truck arm can reach them.
Fayetteville Code Sec. 22-10 requires carts placed at ground level within one foot of the curb or pavement edge, out no earlier than the day before pickup and before 6:00 a.m. on collection day. Because trucks use an automated arm, multiple carts need at least four feet of clearance from each other and from mailboxes, cars, and other objects. Crews skip carts blocked by parked vehicles, low wires, or fixed obstructions. Underground receptacles and non-approved (wooden) containers are not allowed.
Improperly set-out carts are a non-compliant load and may not be collected. Ongoing Chapter 22 violations carry civil penalties per the Solid Waste Fee Schedule; each day is a separate offense.
