Garbage
cart street side placement
Information
Place
your garbage cart either on the curb edge closest to the street or
in the street back against the curb with the lid opening facing the
street. Please observe the following clearance criteria to assure
your carts are serviced and that the possibility of property damage is minimized.
- 18
feet of overhead clearance for
your
garbage cart(s) is essential as the
service vehicles lift the carts overhead to remove
the contents.
- 5 feet
of space in between each cart and recycle bin/container allows
the service vehicle enough space to lower the pickup arm in between
each cart. Without this space
the
arm is
unable
to
reach
around the cart.
- 18 feet
of space between the cart and any tree, automobile or basketball
hoop assures that the mechanical arm or cart does not
come into contact with any object that could sustain serious damage.
- 5 feet
of space between the cart and any mailbox(es) prevents the mechanical arm
from damaging the mailbox.
