Starting tomorrow, if you don’t put your trash can back where it belongs after trash day, you could be fined, if you live in the city. NBC12 Reports on the details:

In one Richmond neighborhood, trash pick up is today. Under the new city ordinance that means residents will have to have their bins removed and out of the way by Tuesday morning at 7 a.m.

…..Richmond Department of Public Works Marc LaFountain says, “You can take a trash or recycling receptacle and put it outside on public property as early as 4 p.m. the night before and leave it there as late as 7 a.m. the morning after.”

For those who don’t comply, DPW will be issuing bright yellow warning stickers from now through the end of April.

“I do think we’ll be giving out a lot of warnings to people who just don’t understand what is and what is not city property and don’t understand that a sidewalk and an alley is a public right of way not private property,” says LaFountain.

In hopes of educating residents before May 1st. That’s when residents will see a red violation sticker and a $50 a day fine tacked onto their utility bill.
