The Problem? Trash!

City of Pittsburgh Rules

All trash must be in cans with snug lids (prevents overflows, decreases litter, deters wildlife intrusion, and provides a cleaner, safer Pittsburgh).

If you can see trash bags (not on trash day), it's illegal.

Trash may be set out after 6PM the night before trash pick-up day.
