Because Lane County is self-haul, there is no countywide curbside setout rule. Waste must be stored in approved cans or receptacles, and any load hauled to a transfer station must be fully covered or securely tied so nothing spills on county roads (Lane Code 9.010.045).
Lane County does not set a countywide curb setout day; where curbside service exists it follows city rules. What the county does regulate is safe storage and transport. Lane Code 9.010.040B requires putrescible waste to be kept in approved litter receptacles, garbage cans, or securely tied bundles. Lane Code 9.010.045 further requires that solid waste transported on any public road be completely covered on all sides, top, and bottom with a cover that is part of or securely fastened to the vehicle or trailer, or otherwise securely tied so no piece can be deposited on a roadway. This prevents litter on the way to a transfer station.
An uncovered or unsecured load that litters a county road, or waste stored in unapproved containers, is a violation subject to abatement and enforcement under Lane Code Chapters 5 and 9.
