Cart and set-out rules in Ann Arbor.
Carts go out before 7 am and must be brought back in by noon the following day.
Keep carts three feet apart with lids fully closed and handles facing away from the street, placed on the lawn extension or against the curb — and out of the path of any bike lane.
In winter the city requires carts dug out and level: shovel a spot on the road or lawn extension rather than perching carts on snow banks.
Carts over the posted weight limits for their size will not be serviced.
