Recycling and Trash

Trash Compactors!

The City has two Trash Compactors, one at China Bridge and one at the Bear Bench located across from the Transit Center.  Please take a minute to have your employees view the operational video.

Republic Services holds the contract for trash removal within the Main Street Historic District. Every business license holder in the district is required to have an account with Republic Services (regardless if you are a member of the HPCA) for one of these services:

• Shared Containers
  Many businesses utilize the common containers in Swede Alley for their trash and recycling instead of housing a trash container at their business. This program splits the cost of removal and recycling among those using the program based on square footage and a usage factor. This is the most cost-effective option.
  
  There are five (5) containers in Swede Alley that are part of the shared program. There are also three mixed-use containers: (1) in Swede Alley behind Firewood Restaurant and (2) in the Brew Pub Parking Lot.
  
  If you have questions about the common containers or about your service, please contact ginger@historicparkcityutah.com.

• Individual Dumpster
  There are some buildings that provide a specific dumpster for tenants to use. The building owner pays the cost for trash removal, and depending on the lease, passes on the cost to tenants. Businesses that wish to have an individual dumpster need to have private property for its location.

• Toters
  Similar to home trash pick-up, businesses can determine the number of toters they need and can set up a frequency for pick-up. The individual business is responsible for trash removal costs. All toters must be stored inside or screened from view.

New businesses need to contact Ginger Wicks and specify which type of service the business selects. ginger@historicparkcityutah.com.

Trash Compactors:

There are two trash compactors (one located on Sweded Alley and one in the China Bridge parking garage). Cardboard and paper make up 41% of the solid waste stream. Remember to place any cardboard products in the cardboard compactor, which is located on Swede Alley. Using the cardboard compactor will save room in the all-in-one recycling dumpster for other recyclable materials.

Mobile Recycling provided by Good Earth:

The Mobile Recycling Drop-off is available for use by all merchants. They accept sorted cardboard, paper, plastic, aluminum, metal, polystyrene, and glass (wine box size amount) from any business in Park City's Business Improvement District.

• All cardboard MUST be broken down. If you do not break down your cardboard, the bins will overflow for everyone.

Disposal of Oil & Grease:

Never dump grease, oil, or fats into the sink, storm drain or dumpster.
Make sure grease is thrown away in used oil containers and recycled properly. If you spill oil or grease outside, soak it up with absorbent materials. Learn More
