Inspection conducted due to complaint received.
Complainant stated that strong odors are coming from the dumpsters, several flies are present around the dumpster area and the doors are not being closed.
Complaint has been founded and details of the complaint were discussed with the person in charge.
Facility is only receiving once weekly trash removal service. Neighbors are disposing of their trash in the dumpsters as well. The dumpster area is not enclosed and is next to the road in an area that is not visible to the staff members. Recommend placing the dumpsters closer to the store or in an enclosed area (such as a fenced or gated area) to help prevent the public from accessing the dumpsters. Also recommend more frequent trash removal services than just once weekly to prevent overflow and prevention of odors and reduce the presence of flies. Additional trash removal services will also allow for the lids to remain closed on the dumpsters which will also help prevent odors and the presence of flies. Facility may also want to provide signs stating the dumpsters are private property to discourage neighbors and customers from disposing of trash in these dumpsters.

  • Refuse - Covering Receptacles
    Observation: Dumpster or outside refuse container was open or uncovered.
    Correction: Cover all waste containers when not in continuous use.
  • Refuse - Maintaining Refuse Areas and Enclosures
    Observation: Trash and litter were observed adjacent to the refuse container outside the facility.
    Correction: The refuse container storage area and grounds adjacent to the container are to be maintained clean and sanitary.
  • Refuse - Removal Frequency
    Observation: Objectionable odors were emanating from the refuse containers outside of the establishment. Employees stated that the trash is only being removed from the facility once weekly. Employees also stated that neighbors are disposing of their trash in the dumpsters causing them to overflow.
    Correction: Increase the frequency that refuse is removed from the facility to prevent objectionable odors.
