No county ordinance sets when or where carts go to the curb in unincorporated Mobile County. Set-out day and time follow your private hauler's route, and cart storage between pickups is an HOA matter.
Bin placement is not something an Alabama county regulates in unincorporated territory. Mobile County has no set-out ordinance, no fixed curb hour, and no screening rule. Timing comes entirely from the private hauler you contract: Republic Services and other haulers publish a collection day and expect carts at the curb the night before or morning of service, then pulled back afterward. Where you keep the cart the rest of the week, and whether it must be hidden from the street, is governed by any homeowners association covenant, not by county law.
The county issues no citation for early or late set-out. A hauler may skip a cart placed after the truck passes, and an HOA can fine you for carts left visible, but neither is a county penalty.
