The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Tooele City bills a monthly garbage service on the utility account and contracts the collection to Ace Disposal, which runs the weekly route and the monthly bulky waste day. The City owns the green container, assigns it to a residence by identification number, and publishes a container price, and the fee table sets the monthly charge for the first container with a lower rate for a second one. Containers go to the edge of the street opposite the mailbox by seven in the morning, and collection skips ten listed holidays with the route pushed back a day for the rest of that week. Once a month the same route takes bulky waste at no extra cost, which is where appliances, furniture, carpet, couches, mattresses, bagged junk and most yard waste go as long as everything is bagged, bundled or boxed and under the weight limit. Construction and demolition material, business waste, tires, bricks, broken concrete, dirt and household hazardous waste are all refused there, and the City points those loads to the Tooele County Solid Waste Disposal Facility for a fee.

City cost & eligibility
$13 per month for the first city garbage container. Tooele City residential accounts with city garbage service. A second container carries its own monthly fee at the lower rate the City publishes, a new or replacement container is sold by the City at the price on the fee table, and an additional container is provided on a first come, first served basis with a four month minimum.
When & how
Once a week on the address's pickup day, with the container at the curb by seven in the morning, and it comes back off the street as soon as it has been emptied. Garbage is not collected on New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, the Fourth of July, the Twenty Fourth of July, Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving or Christmas, and in those weeks service is delayed one day starting with the holiday.
Get it ready
Only garbage inside the City container is collected, so keep extra bags off the curb, because nothing outside the container is picked up on a normal day or on bulky waste day. Put the container at the edge of the street next to the driveway and opposite the mailbox, keep it clear of driveways and roadways, and set it with the wheels close to the curb or the edge of the road, the lid hinge to the curbside and the lid opening facing the street. Do not fill it so full that the lid will not stay shut or that the contents could spill while it is being dumped, and keep it free of markings, because the container belongs to the City even though the household is responsible for its care and cleaning.
Cardboard, paper, bottles and jugs and food and beverage cans go in the recycling container, while plastic film and any foam stay out.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Recycling is part of the city garbage service rather than a separate charge, and the published pickup calendar comes from the contracted operator.
When & how
On the address's recycling day according to the operator's published calendar, with questions on the route going to Ace Disposal.
Get it ready
Recycle cardboard boxes, office paper, junk mail and magazines, plastic bottles and jugs, and food and beverage cans, and keep the material clean because food waste makes cardboard and paper break down faster. Remove cardboard and newspaper from any plastic film and put the film in the garbage. Keep plastic bags, wraps and films out of the recycling container, and keep foam of any kind out as well, including egg cartons and packaging foam. Wet or soggy cardboard and paper are refused, so do not set recycling out in the rain or put yard waste in the container.

When & how

Put the material at the curb the day before the pickup day, and there is no need to call to schedule it.
Get it ready

Boxes have to be thirty gallons or smaller and should not be set out in wet weather, bundles of limbs have to be under eighteen inches in diameter, under five feet long and under seventy five pounds, and no bag, bundle or box may weigh more than seventy five pounds. Do not put out anything marked free or please take, do not lean items against a fence or mailbox, and do not park a vehicle in front of the pile. The service is meant for a cleanup once or twice a year, so a household that regularly overflows the container needs a second one instead.
Appliances, furniture and carpet, including couches, are collected at the curb on bulky waste day at no extra cost.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Furniture is covered by the bulky waste program, which the City provides at no additional cost to residents.
When & how

When & how
Set the appliance at the curb the day before the household's monthly bulky waste day, after the refrigerant work is done on a cooling unit.

Yard trimmings go out with the bulky waste day when the container is full, as long as they are bagged, bundled or boxed, and grass clippings stay out.
City cost & eligibility
From $7 per load of green waste at the Tooele County Solid Waste Disposal Facility when the material will not wait for bulky waste day. Tooele City residents. The bulky waste route itself carries no extra charge, and the county facility charge is the route for green waste between pickup days.
When & how
Set the material out on the household's monthly bulky waste day, the day before pickup, or take it to the county facility between pickup days.

Bundles have to be under five feet long and under seventy five pounds, and a limb bundle has to be under eighteen inches in diameter. Keep grass clippings out of the bulky pile, because the City asks households to compost them, mulch them with a mower or put them in the container on top of other garbage instead. A household that regularly has too much yard waste for the container is told to request a second one.
No city page read here publishes a household electronics route, so a television or computer has to be confirmed rather than assumed.
City cost & eligibility
The City publishes no electronics program or rate on the pages read and the bulky waste list does not name electronics, so call Tooele City utilities on 435.843.2150 or the operator on 435.882.7009 and confirm where a television, monitor or computer should go before it is set out.
When & how
Confirm the route first, because an unconfirmed device may be left at the curb on bulky waste day.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from anything that stores it, keep the device out of the container so the lid can shut, and do not put it out with the bulky pile until the City or the operator has confirmed that the item will be taken.
Construction and demolition waste is not accepted on bulky waste day, and a project load has to go to the county disposal facility.
City cost & eligibility
The City refuses construction and demolition waste on bulky waste day and directs the load to the Tooele County Solid Waste Disposal Facility, which sets its own rates, so call the county facility on 435.843.4785 and confirm the charge before hauling the material.
When & how
Arrange the county facility trip before the work starts, because the material will not be collected at the curb on bulky waste day.
Get it ready
Keep construction and demolition material, brick, broken concrete and dirt out of the bulky pile and out of the container, because the City refuses all of it on the curb. Break down a full pallet and bundle it to the correct size if it is going out as bulky waste, because an unbroken pallet is not accepted.
Only food and beverage cans go in the recycling container, and the City sends any other metal item to a scrap metal recycler.
City cost & eligibility
The City publishes no scrap metal collection or rate and states that only beverage and food cans belong in the recycling container, with all other metal going to a local scrap metal recycler, so confirm the price with the recycler that takes the load.
When & how
Put beverage and food cans in the recycling container on the recycling day, and take a larger metal item to a scrap metal recycler when the load is ready.
Get it ready
Rinse cans and put them in the recycling container loose, because bagged recyclables are not sorted and end up at the landfill, and keep metal items that are not food or beverage cans out of the container. Ask the receiving recycler about the condition and preparation it expects before loading.
Paints, oils, solvents, batteries, old car parts and fertilizers are refused on bulky waste day, and the City gives a separate information line for them.
City cost & eligibility
The City refuses household hazardous waste in the collection and publishes no rate, pointing residents to a separate information line instead, so call 435.277.2300 and confirm where the material goes and what it costs.
When & how
Call the hazardous waste information line before setting anything out, because the material is not collected on the weekly route or on bulky waste day.
Get it ready
Keep paints, oil, solvents, bug spray, weed killer, batteries, old car parts and fertilizers out of the container and off the bulky pile, because the City classifies them as household hazardous waste and refuses them.

It has to be out by seven in the morning on the pickup day, the lid has to stay shut and nothing goes beside it, because only garbage inside the container is collected. Bring it back off the street as soon as it has been emptied.
Bag it, bundle it or box it before bulky waste day
Bulky waste runs once a month on the Thursday assigned to your normal pickup day, following the first, second, third or fourth Thursday pattern, and it costs nothing extra. The operator loads by hand, so everything has to be bagged, bundled or boxed, boxes have to be thirty gallons or smaller and stay out of wet weather, limb bundles have to be under eighteen inches in diameter and under five feet long, and nothing may weigh more than seventy five pounds. Do not set out anything marked free or please take, do not lean items against a fence or mailbox, and move any parked car away from the pile.
The City adds extra bulky waste days in May for spring cleanup on top of the regular monthly schedule, and the published dates follow the same route pattern as the rest of the year. Use them for the annual garage, basement or garden clear out, and keep the same preparation rules, because the extra day does not change how the material has to be bundled, bagged or boxed.
Construction and demolition waste, business waste, tires, piles of brick, broken concrete and dirt are all refused at the curb, and the City points those loads to the Tooele County Solid Waste Disposal Facility on 435.843.4785, which takes green waste for a per load charge between pickup days. Household hazardous waste such as paint, oil, solvents, batteries, old car parts and fertilizers is refused too, and the separate information line for it is 435.277.2300.
