Alley Collection
Street Collection
If you have alley
garbage collection bulk trash must be placed on YOUR side of the alley and
pulled back along your property line. DO NOT BLOCK THE ALLEY.
When placing your trash out, stack
it as neatly as possible, parallel to your fence or property line and at least
five feet away from any fixed object, such as a solid waste container, water
meter box, telephone/utility pole/wire or cable junction box. Make sure to
leave room for solid waste collection vehicles to travel through the alley
behind your home.
Also, do not block UTILITY
EASEMENTS, which are areas five feet around any fixed utility equipment.
Easements can be found in a used or unused alley, sides of property facing
a street or in a front yard. Utility equipment can include cable junction
boxes, electrical junction boxes, gas meters, water meters, fire hydrants
and mailboxes. If you’re not sure if you have these types of service boxes
on your property, call Solid Waste Customer Service at (602) 262-7251.
