Full Breakdown
New Port Richey restricts when residential solid waste containers can sit at the curb: City Code § 10-59(d) permits placement starting at 4:00 p.m. the day before the scheduled collection day, and requires removal from the curbside collection area by the end of the collection day itself. Containers must otherwise be stored in the side or rear yard, out of view from public streets, per § 10-59(a). Placement also can't obstruct vehicular or pedestrian traffic under the related § 10-22 collection-site standard.
Violations & Fines
Leaving a cart at the curb outside the 4 p.m.-to-end-of-collection-day window, or storing it in street view the rest of the week, violates § 10-59 and can draw code enforcement action.
