§ 21-29. Bulky items.

(a)

Generally.

(1)

Garbage not placed in an approved container will be deemed as bulky items and shall be the responsibility of the customer to dispose of.

(2)

The removal and hauling of bulky items such as discarded stoves, refrigerators, water heaters, and other heavy objects and material such as furniture, cabinets or other household items left on the curb shall be immediately removed by the fronting property owner. Items prohibited from disposal in a public landfill, such as a television or computer are prohibited from ever being placed curbside and must be disposed of immediately. Except for those items prohibited for disposal in a public landfill, the fronting property owner may contact the public services department for special pickup for a fee based on the fee schedule for bulky items located in appendix F, article VII. If an owner fails to contract with public services department for removal and if such bulky items are not removed within a timely manner, the city may deem the material a public nuisance and cite the property owner accordingly.
