We create a lot of trash. The Twin Cities Metropolitan area alone generates enough trash to fill the Metrodome 11 times each year. All this trash can have negative effects on our environment.
Reducing the amount of trash we produce and recycling all the items that we can are important ways we can help care for the place that we live. If you’re unsure of whether what you have can be reuse or recycled, visit Dakota County’s
Residential Recycling and Disposal Guide.
