When a rental unit is offered to a new tenant, the landlord and tenant can talk about how garbage, organics and recyclable items from the tenant’s unit will be collected. This could be a verbal agreement or it could be written in the lease. Once a procedure is agreed to, it cannot be changed without the landlord and the tenant agreeing.

If you live in a mobile home park or land lease community, the landlord is responsible for removing the garbage.
