Reviewed · Sources below
Curbside recycling
Accepted with preparationCardboard, 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.
Scrap metal and metal cans
Special rules applyOnly 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.
The handoff matters
Right item.
Right place.
Container at the curb by seven in the morning
Put the green City container at the edge of the street next to the driveway and opposite the mailbox, clear of driveways and roadways, with the wheels close to the curb and the lid opening facing the street. 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.

Before you book
A few things
worth knowing.
Scrap metal removal, from your photo request to the pickup plan in Tooele.
How do I request a scrap metal pickup quote?
Text photos to (844) 879-0892 with your ZIP code, approximate amount and access details. Show the whole pile and a closer view of the material. Our team will confirm the scope, quote and scheduling.
Do you buy scrap metal or pick it up for free?
This is a request for a paid removal quote, not a scrap-buying or free-collection offer. If you want to sell metal, ask a local recycler about its accepted materials and delivery requirements.
How much does scrap metal removal cost?
This service uses a custom quote. Send photos, the approximate amount, your ZIP code and access details. Our team confirms the scope and price before booking; there is no fixed-price catalog item for this pile.
Can you collect it today?
Tell our team your preferred day when you request the quote. Timing depends on the material, amount and access, and is confirmed with your quote. Sending photos does not reserve same-day pickup.
What can go in a Tooele recycling container?
Cardboard boxes, office paper, junk mail and magazines, plastic bottles and jugs, and food and beverage cans. Keep the material clean, remove any plastic film from cardboard or newspaper before recycling it, and keep plastic bags, wraps, films and all foam out, because only bottles and jugs are accepted in plastic.Official guidance
Can plastic bags go in Tooele recycling?
No. Plastic bags, wraps and films cannot go in the curbside recycling container because they bind up the sorting equipment, and bagged recyclables end up at the landfill. Some of that film can be taken to local retail stores that collect plastic grocery bags, and clean plastic film including bubble wrap has its own drop-off options that the City lists.Official guidance
Where does scrap metal go in Tooele?
Only beverage and food cans belong in the home recycling container, and the City says all other metal items should be checked against a local scrap metal recycler. Metal is still valuable and can be recycled indefinitely, so take the load to a recycler and confirm that business's own price and preparation rules first.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Tooele?
Ace Disposal collects garbage under contract with Tooele City, so pickup questions go to the operator on 435.882.7009, while problems with a City container go to the City on 435.843.2150 or utilities@tooelecity.gov. The City owns the container and assigns it to a residence by identification number, and the monthly fee is billed on the utility account.Official guidance
