Logan, UT Trash & Recycling: Pickup Rules & Schedules (2026)

Section 8.32.140 defines the pickup obligation. The responsible authority collects all refuse acceptable for collection under § 8.32.120 from all family or apartment dwellings and institutions, business and industrial establishments. The exception is property already handled by persons holding a collector permit under § 8.32.040. The authority keeps the power to withhold service as an enforcement step under § 8.32.070.

Acceptable refuse is a short list in § 8.32.120: garbage (putrescible animal and vegetable wastes from handling, preparation, cooking, or consumption of food), ashes (the cold residue from burning wood, coal, coke, or other combustible materials), rubbish (nonputrescible solid wastes such as paper, cardboard, tin cans, yard clippings, wood, glass, and metals), and small dead animals not exceeding seventy five (75) pounds each. Condemned animals, slaughterhouse animals, and industrial refuse are excluded, though the authority can remove them on request.

Section 8.32.130 lists what is not acceptable for collection except by special arrangement: hazardous waste, construction and demolition debris, materials not prepared for collection under the regulations, anything the authority judges dangerous to equipment or infeasible to handle, and restricted waste such as liquid waste, infectious medical waste, used motor oil, PCB waste, lead-acid batteries, and tires.

Access backs up the service. Under § 8.32.110 the responsible authority, after identifying himself or herself, can enter public or private property at reasonable times to inspect conditions tied to this chapter, and obtains a search warrant from a court where necessary. Section 8.32.100 allows an emergency order without notice or hearing when a serious health hazard needs immediate action, with a hearing before the mayor on petition.
