home community.
(2) Solid waste generated at a manufactured home community or picnic area shall be stored in a leak-proof, non-absorbent container, which shall be kept covered with a tight-fitting lid.
(3) Solid wastes shall be disposed with sufficient frequency and in such a manner as to prevent insect breeding, rodent
harborage, or a public health nuisance.Utah Admin. Code R392-402-10 establishes sanitation standards for solid waste management in manufactured home communities. Under this rule, waste must be stored in leak-proof, non-absorbent containers with tight-fitting lids, and disposed of frequently enough to prevent insect breeding, rodent harborage, or other public health nuisances. The rule places the primary responsibility for providing adequate containers on the community operator.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under R392-402-10, compliant manufactured home community operators generally supply a sufficient number of appropriate waste containers throughout the community, ensure each container is leak-proof, non-absorbent, and fitted with a tight-fitting lid, and arrange for waste pickup or disposal on a schedule frequent enough to prevent pest activity or public health concerns. Operators typically document their waste management practices and container maintenance to demonstrate ongoing compliance. Failure to meet these standards can expose a community to regulatory scrutiny from state or local health authorities.

R392-402-10 gives residents of manufactured home communities a basis to expect that their operator will provide adequate, properly covered waste containers and arrange for regular disposal that prevents rodents, insects, and public health nuisances. If containers are missing, damaged, or waste is not being removed with sufficient frequency, residents may consider documenting the conditions and reporting concerns to their local health department or the Utah Department of Health and Human Services. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with manufactured housing can also help residents understand what options may be available under this provision.
