Woodbury sits inside an unusual disposal setup, and it changes how a remodel load is handled.
Household trash from Woodbury goes to the Ramsey/Washington Recycling & Energy Center at 100 Red Rock Rd, Newport, MN 55055, a plant owned jointly by Washington and Ramsey counties and run by a board of commissioners from both. The center is open Monday through Thursday from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 6 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and it burns household waste for energy rather than burying it.
That plant will not take your remodel debris. Its published refusal list rules out construction and demolition material, naming sheetrock, shingles, siding, insulation, concrete, asphalt and fencing, along with hot tubs, propane tanks, boats, engines and loads heavy in metal. Roll-off debris from a Woodbury job therefore leaves the county for a licensed construction and demolition facility, and that haul is part of what you pay for.
For the leftovers that belong in neither container, Washington County runs the South Environmental Center right in town at 4039 Cottage Grove Drive, Woodbury, MN 55129. It takes household hazardous waste, electronics and recyclables free from residents, and it's open Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Thursday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Your account manager will confirm exactly where your load is headed and what that destination charges before delivery day.
