Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to recycle my gas-powered equipment to get the discount?

Yes, recycling your trimmer(s), chainsaw(s), and/or leaf blower(s) is required. You will not receive credit for recycling any other gas-powered equipment.

How many gas-powered trimmers, chainsaws, and leaf blowers can I recycle for credit?

You can recycle as many units as you’d like, but the maximum credit awarded is $3,000. Recycling more than six units will not yield additional credit.

I didn’t get the email with my coupon code, what do I do?

Look in all email folders, including spam, for an email from ChargeYourYard@utah.gov.

I got a ticket from a metal recycler, now what?

Use the number on the recycling ticket to complete this coupon request form to receive your coupon code.

What if I recycle six units, get a $3,000 credit, and go back to the recycler to recycle 6 more?

Our system will recognize your business already received a $3,000 credit and will not produce another code for you.

What equipment can I buy with my coupon?

Can I buy electric equipment from any store?

No, the coupon codes will only work on purchases made at these participating retailers: Lowe’s, Home Depot, Wilkinson Supply, and Al’s Auto Parts.
