Dakota County

	Visit Rethink Recycling for information on recycling in your county.

Rethink Recycling was created in 2003 as a collaboration between the recycling and solid waste management efforts in Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey and Washington Counties. Residents of these six counties are encouraged to visit Rethink Recycling for the most up-to-date recycling guidelines for your specific area. A great place to start is their Recycling Guide for Residents, with information on how you can recycle or otherwise properly dispose of a huge variety of materials. The site also provides an extensive directory of municipal recycling contacts, so you know exactly who to call with questions.

Remember, you can always recycle MORE than just what's collected! Reusable goods can be given to thrift stores or churches, food waste can be composted, some materials can be sent directly to remanufacturers... For tips on recycling MORE than what's normally collected, check out our mega list of what can be recycled and how.
