Pasco County requires trash and recycling carts to be placed curbside with lids closed on collection day and retrieved by the following morning. Carts must be stored out of public view from the street between pickups.
Pasco County Code Chapter 110 and Solid Waste Division rules require collection carts placed at the curb or edge of the driveway/alley on the morning of service with lids fully closed. Carts should be spaced at least 3 feet apart and clear of mailboxes, parked cars, utility poles, and drainage structures, with handles toward the house for hauler pickup. Carts must be retrieved from the curb within approximately 24 hours of pickup and stored out of view from the public right-of-way — typically behind a fence, in a garage, or on the side of the house. Code Compliance regularly cites bins left at the curb more than 24 hours. HOAs and CDDs in Wesley Chapel, Trinity, Land O' Lakes, and Seven Oaks enforce additional screening and storage standards through deed restrictions, often stricter than county rules.
Cart left out past deadline: warning, then $25 to $100 per occurrence. Improperly placed carts skipped by hauler. HOA fines separate under FL §720.305.
