James Burgess for Ashburn City Council

Sec. 70-44Private disposal sites—Permit required

Unchanged since the 2007 code
Plain English: what this chapter covers

This chapter covers garbage: how trash must be bagged and stored, the pickup schedule, what the city will and won't haul, private haulers, and the garbage fee on your utility bill. An editor's note says the city contracts with the Solid Waste Management Authority of Crisp County (agreement dated 1996).

It shall be unlawful for any person to deposit or permit to be deposited on land under such person's ownership and control any solid waste without having first obtained a disposal area permit as required by regulations of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources—Rules and Regulations for Solid Waste Management, Chapter 391-1-1.

This is a plain-English guide, not legal advice. The official code is on Municode and at City Hall. Our copy is from April 30, 2026.
