Special Materials Drop-Off Day has Four Cities Cleaning Out
If you live in Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park, Crystal, or New Hope, now’s the time to take back your garage and basement. The Special Materials Drop-off Day is the perfect way for residents of these cities to get rid of junk, like mattresses, old appliances, and more.
Some materials can be dropped off for free, including batteries (auto and home use), bicycles, cardboard boxes, used oil, oil filters, and antifreeze, and scrap metal. There will also be free paper shredding on site.
Other items can dropped for a small fee, including appliances like air conditioners, microwaves, stoves, washers, dryers, water heaters, electronics, monitors, televisions, stereos, mattresses and box springs, and tires.
Items not accepted include carpets, exercise equipment, furniture, light bulbs, paint, vacuum cleaners, and yard waste.
The Special Materials Drop-off Day is Saturday, Apr. 29 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Brooklyn Park’s Operations and Maintenance Facility.
This is not an exhaustive list. For full information about what is and is not accepted as well prices for different items, go to Hennepin Recycling Group’s website.
