With no county curbside program, Paulding's rules focus on keeping garbage containers clean and off the road edge. Container areas must be maintained in a clean condition, and waste cannot accumulate in disorderly piles.
Because the unincorporated county has no county cart or set-out schedule, private haulers set their own can-out times, usually the morning of the weekly route. County code steps in on upkeep: Section 40-8(2) requires garbage container areas to be maintained in a clean condition, and Section 40-5(5) bars storing property within six feet of a street right-of-way for more than 24 hours. Overflowing or scattered waste around a can is treated as litter under Chapter 40 and enforced by the Paulding County Marshal's Office.
Letting garbage accumulate around containers, or leaving cans and debris within six feet of the right-of-way beyond 24 hours, is a Chapter 40 litter violation carrying Marshal's Office citations.
