GREEN WASTE COLLECTION
Green Waste Collection resumes March 11, 2023
We believe in contributing towards keeping the environment clean and sustainable, and we hope you share the same belief. Therefore, we invite you to join us in this eco-friendly initiative by subscribing to a Green Waste can by clicking the Subscribe button below.
Each District residence has the opportunity to obtain a green waste can. The green waste collection program is a subscription program. Collections are provided weekly between mid-March and mid-December.
*Herriman Green can collections are MONDAY's. All other areas are the same as your regular collections day.
Reasons to sign up
- Green waste is less expensive to process, keeping costs low.
- Reduce the amount of waste sent to the landfill as garbage.
- Green waste is processed into usable organic compost.
- Reduce greenhouse emissions caused by decomposing organic landfill waste.

COST
The fees include a one-time $70 start-up fee and an annual fee of $126 for the nine months of collection. Those interested in second green cans still need to pay the $70 start-up fee, but all additional green cans are $36 per can per year. This program is self-sustained through subscription fees and not subsidized with other fees or tax dollars. There is no obligation to participate since this is an optional service for those who want it and are willing to pay for the services.
*A Green Waste can is $108 less expensive per year than an additional garbage can.
ADDITIONAL INFO
