Recycle correctly through your Rosemount hauler

Rosemount requires residents to maintain recycling service and follow Dakota County’s designated list. Paper, boxes, cartons, cans, glass bottles and jars, and selected plastic containers belong in curbside recycling when empty and dry.

Electronics, major appliances, sharps, tires, hazardous waste, yard waste, propane cylinders, medication, plastic bags and tangling items do not belong in the recycling cart. Use the Recycling Guide for the correct destination.

Local events, organics and special disposal

Rosemount promotes citywide cleanup events and operates food-scraps resources. Yard waste uses separate compost or mulch sites, while household chemicals and electronics can use accepted Dakota County programs.

Event dates, item lists and fees can change. Review the city’s current Trash and Recycling page before treating a seasonal event as a guaranteed disposal option.
