What is Green Waste Dumping?

Green waste refers to organic materials generated from yard maintenance, tree care, and landscaping activities. Unlike municipal solid waste that ends up in landfills, green waste can be recycled and repurposed into various types of mulch.  See our mulch page for a complete listing of mulch products and prices.

Our facilities accept a wide variety of organic materials including:

Tree and Shrub Materials:

  • Branches, limbs, and trunk sections from tree removal and pruning
  • Leaves, pine needles, and small twigs
  • Hedge trimmings and bush clippings
  • Root systems and stumps (additional processing fees apply)

Seasonal Debris:

  • Storm damage cleanup materials
  • Fall leaf collection
  • Holiday tree recycling
  • Fruit tree maintenance waste

What We Don’t Accept: To maintain our high recycling standards, we cannot accept rocks, gravel, dirt, sod, or any non-organic materials mixed with green waste.

Our Green Waste Recycling Process 

Every load of green waste brought to our facilities undergoes our comprehensive recycling process:

  1. Inspection and Sorting – Our trained staff carefully separate organic materials from any non-organic debris
  2. Size Reduction – Commercial-grade chippers and specialized equipment process larger materials into manageable sizes
  3. Quality Control – Materials are sorted by type and quality to ensure optimal end products
  4. Mulch Production – All organic matter is transformed into premium mulch products for landscaping and soil enhancement

This closed-loop system means nothing goes to waste. Your tree trimmings and yard debris become valuable mulch products that improve soil health, retain moisture, and enhance the beauty of Utah landscapes.

Seasonal Green Waste Collection in Utah 

Living in Utah means experiencing distinct seasons, each bringing its own unique set of tree care challenges and green waste considerations. 

Our team at Diamond Tree Experts has developed specialized approaches for each season, ensuring your trees receive optimal care while managing the varying types of green waste throughout the year. 

From the vigorous growth of spring to the harsh conditions of winter, we’re prepared to handle the seasonal changes that affect your trees and property.

Spring and Summer:

  • Heavy pruning waste from growth management becomes a primary focus as trees experience their most active growth period. During these months, we carefully manage the extensive trimmings that come from shaping and maintaining your trees for optimal health and appearance.
  • Storm damage cleanup from seasonal thunderstorms requires immediate attention, especially during Utah’s monsoon season when sudden storms can leave behind significant debris and damaged branches.
  • Regular maintenance debris from healthy tree care includes ongoing pruning, shaping, and maintenance activities that help maintain your trees’ beauty and structural integrity throughout the growing season.

Fall:

  • Leaf collection and processing becomes a major priority as deciduous trees prepare for winter. Our efficient collection systems ensure leaves are gathered and processed properly, preventing lawn damage and contributing to our composting programs.
  • End-of-season pruning waste is carefully managed as we help prepare your trees for winter, removing vulnerable branches that might not survive winter storms.
  • Fruit tree maintenance debris requires special attention as we clean up fallen fruit and perform vital pruning to prepare these trees for next season’s production.

Winter:

  • Storm damage from snow and ice presents unique challenges, often requiring emergency response to handle broken limbs and damaged trees from Utah’s heavy winter storms.
  • Holiday tree recycling services help our community responsibly dispose of Christmas trees, turning them into useful mulch and compost materials.
