Program reminders

Yard waste collection: Yard waste collection began April 10, 2017 and will continue through mid-November. You may place yard waste, prepared to collection guidelines, out each week on your garbage day. Minnesota State law prohibits disposing of yard waste with garbage and requires the use of compostable bags for collection of yard waste from your home. Residents may also use their own reusable container approximately 33 gallons in size with sturdy handles to place yard waste out for collection. Visit our Yard Waste webpage for detailed information.

Take a tour of the recycling facility: You can now sign up to attend a tour of the recycling facility where the City's one-sort recyclables are sorted back into paper, plastic, glass and metal. Tours are offered monthly, however, space is limited and some restrictions apply. Click here for more information, tour dates, times, and how to sign up. If you can't attend a tour in person but still want to see how the recycling system works, watch Eureka Recycling's Story of a Cereal Box video.
