Carts in Kaneohe must be placed with proper clearance at the curb on schedule, avoiding unsafe placement that blocks traffic or sidewalks under ROH Sec. 42-1.4 and 42-1.5.
Under ROH Sec. 42-1.4, Kaneohe residents must place trash carts with adequate clearance from obstructions such as mailboxes, parked cars, and trees so the automated collection arm can function. Sec. 42-1.5 prohibits unsafe placement that blocks traffic, sidewalks, or drainage. In Kaneohe's wet climate, drainage obstruction is a real concern; carts blocking curb drains can worsen flooding during heavy rain. Carts should be set out per the city schedule and retrieved promptly to maintain safe and clear roadways.
Unsafe or chronic improper placement can result in skipped collection, warnings, and fines.
