It shall be the duty of each householder or commercial establishment occupying any premises to provide and maintain a substantial container for the reception of rubbish. At least once every seven days and oftener when and if required, the contents of the receptacle shall be hauled to the sanitary landfill by the garbage collector. No rubbish shall be placed nor conveyed in a garbage container. All rubbish containers shall be kept on the householder's premises as far from the street and public way as possible and as great a distance from neighboring premises as is practicable and convenient. Each rubbish container shall be so constructed as to prevent its contents from being scattered by the wind, easily susceptible to catching fire or to dropping its contents when moved.
