Utah County cities provide weekly curbside trash via municipal or contracted haulers. Provo Waste and Recycling runs weekly pickup. Orem uses Republic Services. Unincorporated areas contract private haulers.
Utah County trash pickup varies by jurisdiction. Provo Waste and Recycling Division provides weekly curbside collection of 96-gallon trash carts and biweekly recycling (Provo City Code Title 8). Orem contracts through Republic Services for weekly trash. Lehi, American Fork, and Pleasant Grove use Ace Disposal or Waste Management. Unincorporated Utah County parcels contract privately. Bins must be at curbside by 7 AM on pickup day with lids closed. Holiday delays shift pickup one day for observed federal holidays. Contaminated recycling is tagged and skipped. Missed pickups reported via Provo 311, Orem Public Works, or the respective hauler. South County Landfill on Bamberger Road serves county residents for self-haul disposal.
Repeated bin rule violations: $50 to $200 under municipal code enforcement. Missed pickup due to late bin placement requires wait until next week. Overweight bins (>250 lbs) will not be collected.
