Guidelines for disposal
All tires must be clean, and appliances must be emptied.
Any scrap metal --- such as bicycles (without tires), fencing, pipes, garage doors --- are accepted free of charge but must be free of contaminants and manageable in size. The recycling center reserves the right to decline any item if it does not comply with written or verbal specifications for acceptance.
Household hazardous materials are also accepted free of charge to Dickinson County residents (excluding the cities of Terril and Superior).
Wood chips & compost
The Dickinson County Regional Collection Center has wood chips and compost available for county residents, free of charge for those who load their own. Staff members are available to load trucks with wheel loader buckets (approximately 3-3.5 cubic yards) for $10. Loader is not always available so call for availability.
Wood chips are beneficial for planting and caring for trees and bushes by inhibiting weed growth and conserving moisture. Compost is beneficial to enhance soil fertility and lessen soil compaction.
