Set-out rules
Cart and set-out rules in Akron.
Carts must be at the curb unusually early — by 4:30 am on collection day — and removed by 6 pm that evening.
Set carts at least three feet apart with the handle facing the house and the serial numbers facing the street; if snow piles or parked cars block the curb, the driveway approach is an approved fallback spot.
Each household gets three special bulk pickups per year, and every bulk pickup must be pre-scheduled at least one working day before your collection day.
After an observed holiday, collection runs one day late for the remainder of the week.
