Trash from Property to Sidewalk and back again
This might be a dumb question, but I own a 4 unit property and have been hit with two $50 fines stating
"Violation Code and Description:
107141 - Premises not litter free"
Basically trash bags being on the property outside of cans because they've overflown. They've overflown because no one put the trash cans onto the curb.
I could somehow try to get tenants to do it, could write it into leases, but I don't particularly want a bunch of $50 trash whodunnits.
I have to imagine that many landlords just pay someone to put the trash cans onto the curb. Most "trash collection services" look pretty heavy duty for my puny apartment building.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a service provider that would just take cans to the curb and bring them back in the morning? How much should doing this weekly cost?

Not sure if this is an option but in SF you can pay extra to have the trash company go in your gate or garage to get the trash.
What class of tenants are these? If B- and below maybe you can offer one tenant lower rent to do it. If higher end tenants maybe hire a local kid or task rabbit
