(A) All commercial customers whose volume of garbage exceeds four yards per month shall place their garbage in dumpsters for pickup. No city employee will remove any garbage from any bin, and no city employee will pick up any garbage not contained in a dumpster. All businesses will be required to maintain dumpsters in a safe and proper working order. Any business that maintains a dumpster that is not in working order, upon notification from the Sanitation Supervisor, shall promptly repair any such dumpster. If repairs are not made in a reasonable period of time, city employees will not pick up garbage from the offending dumpster or dumpsters. The customer will be charged the usual rate during the time of cessation of garbage and pickup until such time as the customer brings the dumpster into compliance with this chapter.

(C) Each such commercial establishment shall maintain a sufficient number of dumpsters or bins to accommodate and hold all the garbage produced by the establishment. Under no circumstances shall any garbage, litter or other waste material be stored outside the bins or dumpsters.
(D) All such bins and dumpsters shall be so constructed as to be enclosed fully, and rodent-proof.
