Trash and recycling must be at curbside by 6:00 AM on collection days (but not before 6:00 PM the night before) in order to be picked up. All trash should be put into a black plastic trash bag or a trash container and sealed up tightly to prevent the wind from blowing it open or from critters getting into it.

Container Storage
ALL trash and recycling containers must be stored inside the garage or in the backyard on non-trash days. Containers must be removed from the curb as promptly as possible on the day of pick-up. Trash should not be brought out to the curb any earlier than 6:00 PM the night before trash day and no later than 6:00 AM on the day of pick-up, as the trucks may come early (this includes special pick-up items, like mattresses and couches).
