truck at a landfill weigh stationThere are several landfills and transfer stations in Dakota County that are open to the public. These facilities accept non-hazardous wastes such as garbage, bulky items, remodelling waste and other solid waste. They do NOT accept hazardous waste, tires and yard waste. Call for hours, specifics on materials accepted and associated fees.

*Please note: some landfill facilities have weight minimum pricing, in which customers who bring less than the minimum will need to pay for the minimum weight required.  For example, a resident that brings 200 lbs of waste would pay the same price for disposal as a resident bringing 2 tons of waste. Always call the phone numbers provided below to determine pricing before bringing your waste to the facility.

Transfer Stations/Public Drop-Off Sites

Transfer stations are ideal for small amounts of waste, such as a pick-up truck load or a few bulky items (furniture, etc), because the facilities charge per item or by the cubic yard. Please call the phone numbers provided to inquire about pricing for specific items or amounts of waste.
