The Great Trash Exodus
So, you've got a bag o' filth and you're wondering, "When the heck can I ditch this thing?" Well, buckle up, because the city has some very specific rules about this.
The Golden Rule: Trash bags should hit the curb after 8 PM the night before your scheduled pickup. If you're feeling fancy and have a secure trash can (55 gallons or less), you can put it out a bit earlier, around 6 PM.
QuickTip: Reading regularly builds stronger recall.
Why so late, you ask? Well, the city is trying to be a friend to the furry, four-legged residents (or maybe it's more about us humans not tripping over bags at 3 AM).
Don't Be a Trash Tourist
Remember, this isn't a free-for-all. There are rules, people! Don't be that guy who leaves their trash out at noon. You'll just be feeding the local raccoon population (and trust me, they're not picky eaters).
QuickTip: Don’t just consume — reflect.
Pro Tip: If your pickup is before 4 PM, you have to be a morning person and bring your bins back in by 9 AM. Talk about a rude awakening!
