Monmouth County bin placement rules are set by each municipality. Bins must be placed curbside with lids closed on collection day and retrieved within 12 to 24 hours after pickup. Shore towns enforce stricter retrieval rules during summer to preserve tourist-facing streetscape. Between collections, bins must be stored out of public view — typically in side yards, garages, or behind fencing — and many Monmouth towns specifically prohibit front-yard bin storage.
Trash and recycling bin placement in Monmouth County is regulated at the municipal level. Bins must be placed at the curb or alley edge on collection day with lids closed to prevent animal raiding (raccoons, feral cats, and coastal gulls are major scavengers). Spacing of 3 feet between bins is standard per hauler requirements. Bins must be retrieved within 12 to 24 hours after collection in most Monmouth municipalities. Asbury Park, Long Branch, Belmar, Ocean Grove, and Spring Lake enforce strict 'no visible bins between collections' rules, especially in their Victorian historic districts and summer tourism corridors. Property maintenance codes require storage in side yards, rear yards, or enclosed structures. Some Monmouth boroughs require bins screened from public right-of-way with fencing or landscaping. Deal, Allenhurst, and Rumson have particularly strict bin visibility codes. Multi-family properties may require enclosed dumpster corrals.
Bins left out past deadline: warning typically first, then $25 to $100 per occurrence. Bins visible from street between pickups: blight citation $50 to $200 in shore historic districts. Improperly placed bins (blocking hydrants, mailboxes, crosswalks) may be skipped by hauler and citation issued. Repeat violations: escalating fines.
