California SB731 mandates reflective markings on trash receptacles and storage containers on roadways.

California SB731 requires manufacturers and owners of trash receptacles and storage containers on roadways to mark them with reflectors. Each side must have at least eight strips of reflective tape, each a minimum of two inches wide and two feet long. The tape must be fluorescent yellow and made of high-performance retroreflective sheeting. Owners must also label containers with their name and phone number. Violations result in fines deposited into the Accident Prevention and Road Safety Fund. The law applies to containers longer than three feet and taller than four feet.
