In addition, trash cans and recycling bins must be removed from the front curb following trash pick-up and are never to be stored in front of the house or remain in public view on non collection days.

Current collection days are Tuesday and Friday with recycling on Tuesday, but may change from time to time. Trash and recycling containers shall not be put on the curb earlier than 6:00 p.m. on the day before trash collection. Trash containers must be removed from public view by 9:00 p.m. on trash collection days.

These rules/regulations are promulgated pursuant to Va. Code
