The new rules require trash from any residential building with fewer than 10 units to be put out in containers.
If you live in a New York City building with nine or fewer units, it’s time to pack your bags — into garbage bins.
For now, the sanitation department’s new bin mandate for smaller buildings will only be enforced with written warnings. But on Jan. 2, landlords who flout the rules will face fines of $50 that can rise to $200 for repeat violators. Recycling can still be set out on the curb in clear plastic bags, according to the rules.
New Yorkers ordered more than 215,000 NYC Bins by Oct. 1, meaning they should have received them ahead of Tuesday’s deadline to comply with the new rules, said sanitation department spokesperson Vincent Gragnani.
