Waste Processing
Our advanced waste processing facilities utilize cutting-edge technology to sort and prepare materials for recycling or disposal. We handle municipal solid waste, industrial byproducts, and construction debris using environmentally responsible methods that maximize resource recovery. With specialized equipment for material separation and volume reduction, we ensure efficient processing that meets regulatory requirements while minimizing environmental impact.
Recycling Services
We offer comprehensive recycling solutions for construction and demolition materials, achieving industry-leading 90%+ recycling rates. Our LEED-certified programs provide guaranteed green-building credits through certified shingle recycling and metals recovery. The integrated C&D recycling system processes concrete, wood, and metal components into reusable materials for sustainable construction projects across Minnesota.
Industrial Waste Disposal
Our secure industrial waste disposal services handle non-hazardous industrial byproducts with strict environmental controls. We provide safe containment and treatment solutions for manufacturing residues, chemical byproducts, and specialized waste streams. The facilities maintain zero-incident safety records through advanced containment systems and continuous environmental monitoring to protect groundwater and air quality.
MSW Transfer
We operate an efficient municipal solid waste transfer system that optimizes waste movement to energy recovery facilities. Our network reduces long-haul transportation needs through strategically located transfer stations that consolidate waste volumes. This approach minimizes transportation emissions while ensuring materials reach appropriate disposal or energy conversion facilities using intermodal container systems.
PFAS Removal Solutions
Our advanced PFAS removal systems treat leachate and industrial wastewater using specialized filtration technology. The process effectively reduces per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances to meet regulatory standards through multi-stage treatment protocols. This innovative solution addresses emerging environmental concerns while maintaining compliance with evolving water quality regulations for industrial and municipal applications.

Usually extremely busy and slow. Half of the staff are rude and difficult to work with. I much prefer the Minneapolis location.

Selective and discriminate service. Hopefully you fit their profile when you attempt to drop stuff off or they will say they can't accommodate. They pick and choose at will. We attempted to drop off residential construction debris and were told they couldn't accommodate us. However, they did accommodate other residential drop off while we were there. Individual at the window was unpleasant to say the least.

There's a minimum of $58. So if you don't have at least 1500 pounds it's not worth it. I called and asked if there was a minimum, she said it was by weight. Not happy spending that kind of money on 400 lbs of broken cement.
