Hernando County wants the blue cart at the curb no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before, arrows facing the street, three feet from obstacles, lid closed. Bring it in by the end of collection day.
In unincorporated Hernando County, each home uses one blue Coastal Waste cart, either 65 or 95 gallon. Place it at the curb no earlier than 6 p.m. the evening before your collection day, at least three feet from the pavement with the arrows pointing toward the street. Keep three feet of clearance from mailboxes, poles, parked cars, and other carts so the automated truck arm can reach it. Only bagged waste inside the closed cart is collected - loose or overflowing trash is left behind. Retrieve the cart by the end of collection day and store it out of street view between pickups.
Carts set out too early, left at the curb past collection day, or blocking the right-of-way draw a code-compliance notice and fines if uncorrected. Overfilled or blocked carts are simply skipped.
