Carts are serviced curbside by Waste Management on the resident's assigned collection day. The city's published guidance directs residents to follow WM's placement standards (lid closed, handles facing the home, clearance from obstacles) and to return empty carts off the public way after collection.
The City of Menifee Residential Waste Services page directs all cart-placement, set-out, and return questions to WM at home.wm.com/menifee. Industry-standard franchise terms enforced by WM require carts at curbside by 6:00 a.m. on the scheduled day, with at least 3 feet of clearance between carts and from parked vehicles, mailboxes, low-hanging wires, and other obstructions so automated side-load trucks can service them. Lids must close fully; overfilled or improperly loaded carts may be left uncollected. Storing carts in public view between collection days, blocking sidewalks, or leaving carts at the curb beyond the collection day are nuisance violations enforceable by city Code Enforcement under the Menifee Municipal Code public-nuisance provisions (Title 8 Health & Safety / Title 11 Peace, Morals and Safety).
Carts left at the curb beyond collection day, overflowing carts, or carts blocking the sidewalk can be cited as a public nuisance through Menifee Code Enforcement; report violations via the city Report-an-Issue portal.
