The West Jordan City Council on Oct. 27 approved changes to garbage service that let residents turn in the seasonal can. The monthly price for all three cans stays $24.72, but starting Dec. 1 bills will list $20 for basic garbage and recycling and $4.72 for the seasonal can. [1]

The last seasonal can pickup of 2026 is the week of Nov. 23, on each home's regular day, with Thanksgiving-week Thursday and Friday routes running a day late. Residents who never use the can can return it starting Dec. 1 and pay $20 a month. Those who keep it should hold it until pickup resumes April 1, 2027. [1]

Waste Management becomes the city's hauler on July 1, 2027, and all cans will then be picked up weekly year-round. The city says return details will come closer to Dec. 1. Information is at westjordan.utah.gov/garbage or 801-569-5000. [1]
