Additional Garbage Cans

Guidelines to Ensure Consistent Service:

  • All trash/recycle containers must be placed outside by 7 AM.
  • Place the container in the street with wheels against the curb or within two feet of the blacktop, and the front of the container facing the street.
  • Containers must be placed four feet apart from other containers and eight feet from mailboxes, poles, fences, trees, or parked vehicles for easy access.

If you have followed the guidelines for pickup and the can was not emptied, you must call Allied Waste (801-785-5935) by 3 PM the day after your regular pick-up day, to schedule a go back. If notification regarding a missed container is made after 3 PM the day following your regular pick-up day, we will not be able to return until the next scheduled pick-up day. Other options will be provided (extra bags for the next pick-up day, etc.).

**Recycle containers that have trash in them will NOT be dumped as trash and called into the city.
