Port Hueneme requires bins to be placed at the curb with specific spacing and orientation on collection day. Bins must not block sidewalks, driveways, or fire hydrants. Proper placement ensures automated collection can operate efficiently.
Bins must be placed at the curb with handles facing the street and lids closed. Leave 3 feet of space between bins and at least 3 feet clearance from parked cars, mailboxes, and utility poles. Do not place bins in front of driveways, fire hydrants, or red curb zones. On narrow streets, bins should be placed as far from travel lanes as possible. Overloaded bins with lids that cannot close may not be serviced. Extra waste beside bins may not be collected without scheduling a special pickup.
Improperly placed bins may not be collected. Bins blocking sidewalks violate ADA accessibility requirements. Bins left at the curb past collection day violate storage requirements.
