Green Waste & Composting

Green Waste at a Glance

• Residents may receive three (3) free green waste vouchers each calendar year.

• Spanish Fork does not operate a municipal green waste or composting facility.

• The former program closed because it cost substantially more to operate than the compost was worth.

• Green waste, including branches, weeds, leaves and grass clippings, may be taken to the Dry Creek Transfer Station.

• Residents may use their Spring & Fall Cleanup vouchers toward disposal costs.

• Grass clippings can often be left on the lawn through grass-cycling, which returns nutrients to the soil.

• Residents are encouraged to compost leaves, garden waste, weeds and food scraps at home.

• Home composting can reduce waste in garbage cans and provide compost for gardens and flowerbeds.

• Check the SUVSWD website for current disposal fees and accepted materials.
