Prince William County (PWC) ordinances require "Household garbage to be bagged and contained in trash cans with secure lids to prevent litter problems." This is NOT a T.O.T.A. rule; it’s a PWC Health Department policy that we are enforcing: Property code ordinance: Chapter 22 section III.   Click here for General Information - Recycling & Trash Disposal

 

 

TOTA RULES:

• Residents can put their trash cans in their parking spaces or on the sidewalk in front of their homes, but not before 6 pm on Sundays and Wednesdays. (This rule is enforceable by a $50 penalty to any offender.  If you have any questions regarding this policy, contact MJF Associates at (703) 369-6535). 
• No trash is to be placed on the common areas. If you use the sidewalk, please make sure your trash can does not obstruct other residents' use of the sidewalk. If you use your parking space, make sure the container is clearly visible and not hidden by your vehicle.

 

Reminder

Improper disposal of trash is a Prince William County health violation and it’s a violation of the TOTA covenants. Please help us correct this problem. Let us know if you see a neighbor violating this policy by emailing any Board member or by calling MJF at (703) 369-6535.
