Full Breakdown
210 of the North Las Vegas Municipal Code establishes the rate schedule for 'special one-time on-call collections': the mechanism residents and businesses use to get rid of bulk items, furniture, or other large-volume trash that doesn't fit in a regular cart. 73 for eight cubic yards. The same on-call schedule also covers residential refrigerator and air-conditioner Freon removal, billed as a pass-through of the third-party removal cost rather than a flat City rate. 290. 20, a resident who wants an old couch or appliance hauled away outside the regular weekly cart service has to schedule and pay for one of these on-call collections through the City's exclusive franchisee rather than simply setting the item at the curb.
Violations & Fines
There's no separate misdemeanor penalty tied to the on-call rate schedule itself, but setting bulk items or assorted trash at the curb outside an arranged on-call pickup exposes the property to the general Chapter 8.20 dumping and container rules: accumulating solid waste on a premises in a way that's unsightly or unsanitary violates § 8.20.060, and using a container that isn't the customer's own or that overflows can trigger charges under § 8.20.220. Both carry the standard § 8.20.370 misdemeanor exposure of up to a $1,000 fine and up to six months in jail.
