Bellevue, Neb., Code of Ordinances ch. 15 (2026) § 15-114
SAME—RUBBISH STORAGE FACILITIES
Operative Text
Every occupant of a dwelling containing one dwelling unit and every occupant of a dwelling containing two dwelling units, except as provided in the section on garbage storage and disposal facilities, shall furnish adequate rubbish storage facilities whose type and location are approved. (Code 1964, § 12A-8)
Under Bellevue, Neb., Code of Ordinances ch. 15, art. IV § 15-114, occupants of single-unit and two-unit dwellings are responsible for providing their own rubbish storage facilities, subject to exceptions outlined in the related garbage storage and disposal section. The facilities must be of an approved type and placed in an approved location. This rule places the storage obligation on the occupant rather than the property owner in these smaller dwelling configurations.

Under § 15-114, property owners and managers of one- and two-unit dwellings in Bellevue should be aware that the rubbish storage obligation is assigned to occupants, though landlords generally benefit from ensuring that lease agreements and property conditions support compliance. Operators commonly confirm that suitable, code-approved storage locations are available on the property so occupants can meet their obligations. Reviewing the related garbage storage and disposal provisions referenced in § 15-114 can help clarify where landlord responsibilities may begin.
