Violations & Fines

A hauler that runs pick-up outside the 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. window is subject to the license discipline in Section 1060.07(c): the hauler gets twenty-four hours to cure a spillage violation or seventy-two hours for any other violation, and three uncured violations, or five violations whether cured or not, trigger license revocation with at least a one-year bar on reapplying.

Frequently Asked Questions

How early can trash trucks run in Clinton Township?
Section 1060.07(i) bars any hauler from picking up solid waste, recycling or composting before 7:00 a.m., and collection also cannot run past 7:00 p.m., regardless of whether the hauler is the Township's municipal service or a licensed private hauler.
Is the pick-up time rule the same for recycling and composting?
Yes. Section 1060.07(i) covers 'solid waste, recycling or composting' together under the same 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. window, so no category of curbside material gets an earlier or later collection allowance in Clinton Township.
What can happen to a hauler that collects trash too early or too late?
Under Section 1060.07(c), a licensee has 72 hours to cure most violations, but three uncured violations or five violations of any kind, including running outside the licensed pick-up hours, are grounds to revoke the license and bar reapplication for at least a year.
