Bins placed handles-out at curb, 3 ft apart and from obstacles. Lids closed for wildlife. Stored out of view after collection; HOAs often require garage storage.
Residents must position containers at the curb edge with wheels against the curb and handles facing the street for automated collection. Bins require at least 3 feet of clearance from each other, parked vehicles, mailboxes, utility poles, and other obstructions. Containers should not block sidewalks or impede pedestrian access. Lids must be fully closed to prevent animal scavenging (coyotes, javelinas, and other desert wildlife are common in Oro Valley). Containers must be stored out of public view when not set out for collection, typically behind a wall or inside a garage. Many HOAs in Oro Valley enforce stricter container storage rules, requiring bins to be kept inside the garage or behind side-yard gates at all times.
