(A) Franchise collector/hauler to provide containers. The city's franchise collector/hauler will provide containers to properties subscribing to collection service. The franchise collector/hauler will provide a variety of container sizes to meet the different needs of households. It will be the duty of every property owner, tenant, lessee, or occupant of any premises to arrange for containers large enough to hold all solid waste ordinarily accumulated on the premises in one week's time. Containers must be watertight, have suitable bails or handles and a tight-fitting cover.
(B) Maintenance and location.
(1) All containers, when leaking or in a defective state, must be cleaned, repaired or replaced by the franchise collector/hauler or owner of the container.
(2) Individually-serviced residences. Containers must be placed for collection day such that they are easily accessible for collection as approved by the collector. Such placement should occur no earlier than 5:00 p.m. on the day prior to the scheduled collection day, nor later than 10:00 p.m. Emptied containers should be removed promptly from the curb, no later than the day following collection.
(3) All other occupancies. Cans, bins, bulk waste containers, and other vessels for waste storage by all other occupancies must be placed such that they are easily accessible for collection as approved by the collector.
