Set-out rules
Cart and set-out rules in Fort Worth.
Carts can go out after 6 p.m. the night before, must be at the curb by 7 a.m., and should be retrieved by midnight on pickup day.
Face the cart handle toward your house with the serial number toward the street, a few inches from the curb — never in the street, and only in front of your own address.
Allow crews until 7 p.m. before reporting a miss, and report it within 24 hours through 311 or the MyFW app or the crew cannot return.
Between collections, carts must be stored so they are not visible from the front of the property.
