(A) All waste shall be collected by a licensed and registered waste hauler at least 1 time each week and disposed of outside of the limits of the city at a disposal site or recycler. Waste will not be collected on holidays or Sunday. If a collection date falls on a holiday, the very next day may become the collection day for that collection route, and the other collection days may be put forward by one day. Waste haulers must provide adequate notification of their holiday week collection schedule to their customers. Except under unusual circumstances or as necessitated by a holiday, collection days will be Monday through Friday for residential customers and shall include Saturday for commercial and industrial customers.
(B) The holidays, for purposes of this section, shall be New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. The waste hauler shall observe any or all of such holidays by suspension of collection service on the holiday, but this in no manner relieves the waste hauler of its obligation to provide collection service at least once per week to each customer. All collection days will be on the days from Monday through Friday, unless a holiday falls during the week and requires a collection day to be held on a Saturday.
(C) When waste is removed from the city, it shall be done in a neat and orderly manner so that the waste is not spilled or blown onto the streets or private property. All refuse hauled by the waste hauler shall be so contained, tied or enclosed that leaking, spilling or blowing is prevented.
