Trash and recycling containers must be placed at the curb no earlier than 6 PM the evening before collection and removed by midnight on collection day. Containers must be stored out of street view between pickups per City Code.
Chapter 51 and Chapter 99 provisions require that solid waste containers be set out within 24 hours of collection and returned to a storage location not visible from the public right-of-way. Acceptable storage locations include behind privacy fences, within side yards screened by landscaping, inside garages, or along the side of the house out of primary street view. Containers should be placed on firm surface, away from mailboxes, fire hydrants, and parked vehicles. Lids must remain closed to prevent vermin and wind scattering.
Code Enforcement citations for improperly stored containers typically start with a warning, escalating to 50-100 dollar fines for repeat violations. Hurricane preparation requires securing all bins 48 hours before predicted storm impact.
