Sweden, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 134 § 134-9 establishes standards for how refuse must be stored, collected, and disposed of within mobile home parks. The rule requires that waste be kept in sealed, rodent-proof containers placed within 150 feet of any mobile home lot, and that garbage-containing refuse be collected no less than twice per week. The provision is designed to prevent health hazards, pest infestations, fire risks, and air pollution arising from improper waste management.

Under Sweden, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 134 § 134-9, mobile home park operators are generally expected to supply a sufficient number of flytight, watertight, and rodentproof containers positioned no more than 150 feet from each lot. Operators must ensure garbage-containing refuse is collected at least twice weekly, and when municipal or private collection services are unavailable, the park operator is responsible for arranging that service directly. Vehicles and containers used for transport must be covered, and overall refuse management practices should be maintained in a manner that avoids creating health, pest, fire, or pollution hazards.
