Green waste collection

First, you need to know:

Call 2 Haul is NOT a pile program!

Rather, it’s a way to schedule disposal of large, bulky items sustainably.

Call 2 haul is not a pile program

Call 2 Haul will collect the following green waste. No other material can be set out with the green waste.

Brush and branches.

Green waste such as small trees, stumps or branches less than 24 inches in diameter. Larger stumps are not accepted.

  • Green waste must be cut to no longer than 5 feet in length to fit into our compactor. 
  • Please bundle if possible. It is important to keep loose debris off the street and out of the gutters.
  • Note: Trees in the park strip are City trees. It is unlawful to alter, remove, or prune City-owned trees for disposal through Call 2 Haul or any time of the year. Instead, please contact Salt Lake City Urban Forestry at (801) 972-7818 to submit a request for SLC’s professional arborists to service your park strip trees.
tree limbs

Brush and bushes cut to no longer than 5 feet in length, piled 4 feet high are accepted.

  • When possible, bushes and brush should be cut and placed in the brown compost carts. We’ll discuss your unique needs when you call to schedule your collection.
  • If needed, you can request 1-2 additional brown compost carts for a large volume of miscellaneous green waste items, such as hedge trimmings, leaves, or bushes.
  • Otherwise, schedule your green waste only pickup for brush, bushes, or tree limbs.
