Trash, recycling, and organics carts must be placed at the curb on collection day and stored out of public view between pickups.
San Leandro Municipal Code requires carts to be placed at the curb or designated collection point no earlier than the evening before collection and returned to a screened storage area by the end of collection day. Carts should not block sidewalks, bike lanes, or fire hydrants. Storage must be behind a fence, gate, or inside a garage or side yard screened from street view to avoid property blight violations.
