Provo City's Fall Cleanup program was scheduled to begin September 28, according to a September 21 statement. The program provides residents with various dumpster locations to assist in disposing of large household items and excess waste that may not fit in regular garbage bins.
The six-week initiative includes rotating community dumpster locations and ongoing access to the Provo City Compost Yard. Residents participating in the program receive a coupon for one free load to the transfer station and a coupon for five free leaf bags. To utilize cleanup sites or drop materials off at the compost yard, residents must provide proof of residency, such as a driver's license or a utility bill.
The Provo City Compost Yard, located at 1625 S Industrial Pkwy, was scheduled to be available from September 28 through November 7. Operating hours for the compost yard are Monday through Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The city noted that after-hours dumping is not permitted.
Other scheduled cleanup locations and dates include: the Pole Yard at 2027 W 820 N from September 28 through October 10; Rock Canyon Park at 2620 N Foothill Dr from October 12 through October 24; the Peaks Ice Arena Overflow Parking Lot at 100 N Olympic Blvd from October 26 through October 31; and Footprinter Park at 1150 S 1350 W from November 2 through November 7. Dumpster locations are open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and on Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
The program is designed to help residents declutter homes, yards, and garages before the winter season arrives. Residents can find complete cleanup rules, accepted materials, and coupon information by downloading the Fall Cleanup 2026 PDF.
