Count on us to be your one-stop-shop for unwanted electronics, appliances, batteries, tires, fluorescent lights, construction materials and bulky items like furniture and mattresses. Our public drop site locations make it convenient for you and good for the environment.
Randy’s Environmental Services Delano public drop site location provides an easy drop off location for Buffalo, St. Michael, Independence, Medina, Montrose, Rockford, Orono, Maple Plain, Wayzata and Long Lake residents or businesses looking for a recycling drop off center or approved dump site.
We’d like to help preserve the beauty of our river going through Delano and make it easy to drop off materials and have them properly recycled or disposed of. It’s easy to make a quick stop with all those unwanted phones, desktop computers, TVs or other unwanted stuff that’s just sitting in you garage, attic or basement.
Did you know this about appliances that typically contain 70% steel? Making new steel out of recycled scrap uses 1/4 of the energy required to process steel from virgin ore, so using recycled steel is very good for our environment. Americans recycle about 72% of appliances today—and every little bit helps our environment.
Open six days a week for your convenience, the Delano public drop site will take those things that can't be routinely disposed of like batteries, tires, fluorescent lights, cell phones, computer screens, televisions and other electronics, as well as larger items like appliances (freezers, washers, microwaves, etc.), tires and mattresses. There’s almost no limit to the items we can recycle or dispose of properly, including discarded household items, construction waste and cardboard. There’s no need to run from place to place because we take care of everything right here. If you have sensitive paper documents to dispose of, drop them off for our shredding service. You’ll find an expanded list of what we can take located here. Hazardous waste items we are not able to accept are listed here. If you have any questions, just give us a call.
