On private property, a driveway or a fenced job site, Bonney Lake does not require a container permit, and there is no container provision in the city rules at all. What matters is the surface: firm, level ground, with plywood under the rails on a finished driveway.
The street is a different matter, and this is the one Bonney Lake rule that genuinely changes plans. The City treats an encroachment into the right-of-way as any intrusion, whatever its height or size, including any material or structure, which plainly reaches a container. A permit is required, and the City lists conditions under which a permit must not be granted at all. Those include a safety hazard to drivers, cyclists or pedestrians, an object the planning director judges out of keeping with the surrounding area, and anything within five feet of a roadway surface. On most streets here that last one closes off the obvious curbside position.
A permit that is granted carries a hold harmless agreement and a certificate of insurance naming the City, the City keeps the right to revoke it, and the application fee is charged whether or not the permit is issued. All of which is a long way of saying that in Bonney Lake the driveway is nearly always the right answer. Your account manager will check the position with the City before a truck is dispatched.
