1. When should I have my container on the street?

Your green garbage container must be out on the curb by 7:00 am on your scheduled day. If you are missed because you did not have your container out on time, Ace Disposal will not return and they keep track of homes not having containers out on time. You may put your container out the night before your scheduled garbage day. Containers must be off of the street the day following your scheduled garbage day.

2. How many times a week will my container be emptied?

Garbage cans are dumped only once a week. Do not refill container and put across the street for second pick up. If you continually have more garbage than your container will hold, you can rent an additional container.

3. What about grass clippings?

Grass clippings may be put in your green garbage container. Bag your clippings before putting them in the container. Grass clippings will not be picked up as bulky waste.

4. Does the lid need to close on my garbage can?

Yes. The lid on your container must be closed. If you have excess garbage that overflows your can, a lid can only be raised six inches. If it is more than six inches the garbage will not be picked up.

5. Can I obtain an additional can?

You can obtain an additional can two ways. You can either call our office at (801) 955-3720 and request an additional can be delivered to your home or you can come into our office at 2805 South 3600 West and pick up a can. In either case, you must complete a card requesting the additional can. Additional cans must be kept for a minimum of six months. There is a charge of $6.45 for each additional can.

6. What happens if my container is damaged?

If the container is damaged by abuse or misuse, you will be charged a fee of $75.00 to replace the can. Abuse and misuse includes overfilling the can, burning the can with hot coals or other hot material, paint or other hazardous materials in or on the can, etc. Be careful with what you put in your container. If the container is damaged by the contractor, there will be no charge to replace the can.

7. Holiday pick-up schedule?

There are only three (3) holidays that Ace Disposal does not pick up garbage:

Thanksgiving
Christmas
New Years Day

If your garbage day falls on one of these holidays or after the holiday during the same week, your garbage will be picked up a day later. If in doubt, put it out!
