On private property in Dinuba, including a driveway or a fenced job site, no city permit is needed for the container itself.
Placement is still regulated, and Dinuba's rule is written around alleys rather than streets, which catches people out. Where a property has an alley other than a blind alley, waste containers must sit at the rear of the premises next to the property line, or in a properly designed enclosure built to city standards, or somewhere completely screened from public view. That applies to residential, commercial, industrial and every other urban use inside the city limits. Where there is no alley, material goes to the curb rather than into the gutter, and the City's refuse supervisor may decide where containers are placed.
Putting waste or rubble in a street, alley, gutter, highway, park or other public place is an offense in its own right, so a container in the roadway is not an option you can arrange informally.
There is also a construction and demolition layer that lands on the project owner rather than the hauler. A covered project has to file a recycling and reuse plan with the City on its own form. Covered projects include demolition of 500 square feet or more, any renovation of a kitchen or bathroom regardless of size or value, and larger additions, remodels and new builds measured by floor area or project value. The City's designated recyclable and reusable materials list names inert solids, untreated wood, vegetative material, metals, roofing material and salvageable fixtures.
