1. What is green waste recycling?

Green waste recycling is a voluntary program for curbside collection of green yard waste. It is collected on your regular trash day but by a different truck.

Green waste materials include:

• Lawn cuttings
• Clippings from bushes or shrubs
• Leaves
• Garden waste and produce
• Other similar green yard waste

Residents may NOT place dirt, rocks, sod, food waste, or paper in their green waste recycling containers. Green waste should not be bagged.

2. Why recycle yard trimmings?

Green waste materials are relatively clean, biodegradable, and unnecessarily take up space in landfills. The materials can be turned into mulch and compost material. Recycling yard trimmings will improve the performance of the Wasatch Integrated Waste Management energy recovery facility (incinerator) and will help extend the life of the landfill up to 20 years.

3. What if I don’t want to participate?

The West Point Green Waste Program is voluntary. Once enrolled, residents must keep the can and pay for the service for a minimum of 6 months. A $12 cancellation fee will apply to stop service.
