Ashburn Farm Architectural Guidelines - Website Edition

Trash and Recycling


Containers are to be placed out at curbside after 6:00 p.m. the night before pickup.  Container(s) shall be removed and stored out of sight at the earliest opportunity the same day as trash/recycling pickup. 

 

Secure all trash in heavy-duty plastic bags, standard trashcans, or the wheeled carts provided by the trash service.  Grocery sized bags from stores such as Giant, Safeway, etc. are NOT to be placed on the street and used for trash disposal.

 

All homeowners are responsible for picking up litter on his/her property and preventing wind-blown debris from originating on his/her property. 

 

Storage

 

Trash cans and recycling containers must be stored out of view of the street and in an area that has minimal impact to the adjoining properties.

  • The preferred storage of trash containers is in the garage or located behind the rear plane of the house.

  • Storage of these containers in front or along side the garage of the house is not acceptable.  

  • If the property is fenced then the trash container may be stored behind the fence as long as it has minimal impact to the neighbors.

  • Trash containers cannot be stored outside your property’s boundaries on Ashburn Farm common area/open space property.

  • Trash bags or trash containers are not to be stored on elevated decks.  For health and sanitary reasons all trash bags should be stored in covered trash containers and stored at ground level.
