Outdoor Storage

Outside storage of items such as construction material, tires, machinery, indoor furniture, fixtures, and appliances (even if covered) is not allowed. These items should be kept in a garage or storage shed.

To help with the disposal of these prohibited items, the city offers a trash and recycling program for residents including events for free or very low cost. These events include Neighborhood Curbside Cleanup Days, Tower Landfill Days, Free Tire Recycling and many more. Learn more about the program and events at c3gov.com/Trash.
