Proposed New Drop-off Facility

Page Content

​​​​​​Dakota County anticipates building a new regional household hazardous waste and recycling drop-off facility in Lakeville.  The Recycling Zone Plus will be a partnership with Scott County to provide additional services to residents in both counties.

Dakota County purchased property in Lakeville, located at 10125 217th St. West. The county is working with the City of Lakeville on building requirements and permitting.  We are​ working to secure additional state funding before starting construction. The goal is to open the facility in 2026. 
The Recycling Zone Plus will collect similar materials as the existing Recycling Zone in Eagan. 

Dakota County's Recycling​ Zone in Eagan has been in operation for more than 20 years. Residents drop off paints, pesticides, automotive chemicals, household cleaners, fluorescent light bulbs, batteries and small electronics for proper management and disposal.

Facility staff sort, pack and store materials on-site until they are shipped to disposal or recycling facilities. The Recycling Zone has reached capacity, with resident participation increasing 33 percent in the last 10 years. The existing Recycling Zone will remain open after the proposed new facility opens.
