Republic Services and Las Vegas Code Enforcement regulate trash bin placement. Bins must be placed at the curb with lids closed and handles facing the street on collection day. They must be at least 3 feet from mailboxes, vehicles, and other obstructions. Between collection days, bins must be stored out of public view — behind a wall, fence, or in a garage. Violations may result in Code Enforcement notices.
Las Vegas requires trash and recycling bins placed at the curbside or alley edge on collection day with lids fully closed. Bins should face the street with handles toward the house, spaced at least three feet apart and away from parked cars, mailboxes, or utility poles. Bins must be retrieved within 12 to 24 hours after collection. Bins left out beyond the allowed window may trigger code enforcement action. Between pickups, bins must be stored out of public view.
Bins left out past deadline: warning first, then $25 to $100 per occurrence. Improperly placed bins may be skipped by haulers.
