Effective Jan. 1, 2025, all new residential utility accounts are required to include a blue recycling can. While Kaysville already has a strong participation rate in recycling, this requirement aims to further support public health and welfare by preserving landfill space and reducing overall solid waste. 

The new recycling pickup calendar is now available. Visit Kaysville’s Garbage/Recycling page on the website at https://www.kaysville.gov/199/Garbage-Recycling to view or download your copy today and stay on top of collection dates for the year. Pickup for blue recycling cans is every other week. Pickup for green waste cans is weekly on the same day as your black can is picked up. From the website, you can zoom into your house or type in your address in the search bar to find your house. You will then be able to see which recycling color week (blue or red) and which garbage day you have. To see the current recycle week, check the Recycling Pick Up Schedule for your color zone.    

The recycling container must be used for acceptable recyclable materials. Recyclables can be co-mingled or mixed in one container. Examples of proper recyclables include paper, plastics, cardboard, and metals. Unacceptable items would include items such as aerosol cans, asbestos, car batteries, carpet, dinnerware and ceramics, clothing, cookware, disposable diapers, food and liquid waste, glass of any kind, household hazardous waste, insecticides, light bulbs and tubes, paint cans, plastic grocery bags, pizza boxes, small appliances, Styrofoam packing, trash and yard waste, used paper plates and cups, wax paper, wood scraps, or items too large to fit in the can.

Garbage cans are provided to residential customers by the city; a serial number on each can connect it to a specific address (if you move, please do not take your garbage can with you). If you need additional or replaced garbage can, recycling can, or green waste can, please call the billing department at 801-546-1235. Additional recycling containers are available for an added $5 per month per container and must be kept at least 12 months. Any calls about garbage collection should go directly to Robinson Waste Service at 801-825-3800.

Please do not place furniture, boxes, or other large household items into park dumpsters. This has become a big problem, especially at Pioneer Park and Ponds Park. If you see unauthorized dumping, please call 801-544-1788.

Make 2025 a great year for recycling in Kaysville City. λ
