Salt Lake City Waste & Recycling Division

Salt Lake City's sustainability program, SLCgreen, offers a range of waste and recycling services to residents. These services include curbside collection of blue recycling cans, brown compost cans, green garbage cans, and grey glass recycling cans. Starting February 3, 2025, there will be changes to the waste recycling collection schedule, with a new map available to determine pickup days. Residents can also request up to two yard waste cans for temporary placement and report illegal dumping in the city. The program provides information on bulk waste collection through the Call 2 Haul service, as well as details on holiday schedules and weather delays affecting garbage, recycling, and compost collection. Additionally, there are resources available for hard-to-recycle materials, seasonal services such as holiday tree collection, and a Master Recycler Program for those interested in becoming recycling leaders. Salt Lake City also mandates recycling or reuse of waste from construction projects and offers specialty recycling programs and drop-off locations for mixed recycling. Visitors can follow SLCgreen on social media for updates and information on sustainability initiatives.
