Hillsborough enforcing bulk items, rollout cart rules

Posted on July 12, 2012 by Staff

Under a new town ordinance, Hillsborough is enforcing its bulk-items collection and rollout-cart polices with fines.

The ordinance says bulk items, such as mattresses and furniture, may be placed at the curbside no earlier then seven calendar days before the scheduled collection date. Rollout carts may be placed by the curb after 6 p.m. on the day preceding collection day, but residents are responsible for removing all solid-waste receptacles from the street by 6 a.m. the day after collection. Those who do not follow town policy will be sent violation notices and will have five days from notice date to comply with ordinances.
