- Rent a Green Waste trailer for yard waste. All yard waste is turned into mulch at the Salt Lake Valley Landfill.
- The containers are for residents only. No commercial or construction dumping is allowed
- If you have large amounts of waste that cannot wait for the area clean-up you can rent a trailer for Green Waste.
- Do not put tires, oil, paint, batteries, propane tanks, 55 gallon drums, or any toxic waste or materials in the containers. Salt Lake Valley Landfill lists resources for recycling locations for these items.
