Set-out rules
Cart and set-out rules in Los Angeles.
Place your black, blue and green bins at the curb before 6 a.m. on your collection day, and bring them back onto your property no later than 8 p.m. that same day.
Leave 6 to 12 inches between bins, and keep the same 6 to 12 inches of clearance from the curb, parked cars and any other solid object so the truck's automated arm can grab each bin cleanly.
Every lid must be completely closed. If a lid will not shut, the bin is too full and may not be collected.
When it rains, closed lids keep the bins from filling with water, and the gap you leave at the curb lets stormwater run down the gutter instead of carrying your bins away.
