Why not put the ACL on your ingress side at your switch or router? I would typically not expect a colo provider to provide this service unless I'm paying extra for it.
The smaller they are, the more likely they are to do so to keep you happy, but I certainly wouldn't be asking this request unless it was some 11th hour DOS-prevention request. Even then, they may not want to install this ACL as ultimately they should be billing you for this UDP traffic (which this ACL, may prevent their billing system from metering).
